About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with an unusual load of organic produce. As he unloaded crates in the backroom, he noticed something strange: one particular crate seemed to be glowing softly from within. Curious, he opened it gently—and out popped a tiny green sprout waving its leaves. Turns out, it was just an especially enthusiastic shipment of sprouting wheatgrass! A regular customer later joked that Wheatsville had finally started growing its own employees.
2. A few years ago, every Wednesday afternoon around closing time, an old man would appear near the checkout counters with a mysterious brown paper bag. He’d ask if anyone needed help carrying groceries to their car, but no one ever saw him leave. One day, a delivery driver noticed the same brown bag and decided to follow it discreetly. Turned out, the old man was just helping himself to some free bananas from the produce section before heading off into the sunset—leaving behind a trail of giggles among the staff.
3. One night, while stocking shelves, a young employee swore he heard someone whispering in the empty aisles. The next day, customers reported smelling faint aromas of freshly baked bread wafting through the store—even though there was no bakery. Soon enough, rumors spread that Wheatsville had hired a ghost baker to keep things fresh. One evening, an overnight security guard claimed he saw a shadowy figure rolling past loaves of bread. A few days later, a delivery driver arrived with a box of donuts and asked if anyone wanted to buy ‘em from the neighbor down the street.’ Everyone laughed it off until they realized the donuts were actually pretty good.
4. One day after closing, an employee noticed a mysterious note taped to the cash register:
‘Next week, bring your own jar.’ Curious, the worker brought an empty mason jar next day. The following Monday, another note appeared: 'Fill it yourself.' By Friday, everyone in town was bringing their jars—even the grumpiest delivery driver had a smile on his face. Soon enough, Wheatsville became famous for its friendly pranks and DIY spirit.
