August 2025

As we welcome August, we are looking forward to all things fall. Planning continues for our two premier fall events: the Wayne County Outdoor Expo and the Ozark Heritage Festival. We are still accepting applications for food trucks and vendors at both events. We are also excited to offer a variety of sponsorship/advertising opportunities. We will continue to publish the Ozark Heritage Festival Booklet this year, and we are excited to see it grow. Please consider sponsoring these great events as a way to advertise your business at our biggest events of the year. Applications for sponsorships and the booklet can be found on our website www.visitpiedmontmo.com under the events tab or by contacting the Chamber office at chamber@visitpiedmontmo.com. Vendor spaces and booklet ads can also be purchased with a credit card through our online store at Products – Piedmont Area Chamber of Commerce. We wish our kids, teachers, staff and administrators a successful year as they start back to school and our community businesses a prosperous end of summer!

A Piedmont Staple Finds New Life Under New Ownership


In April of this year, long time Piedmont business, Johnson Farm and Pet, was listed for sale. Over the last 3 months the fate of our community staple feed store was uncertain. Two weeks ago, a very exciting update came when Piedmont native, Lisa Ross, and partner Mike Mullery announced their new ownership and plans to move forward. Boasting their new name, Country Valley Mercantile plans to remain true to the roots of Johnson Farm and Pet as our locally owned establishment for feed, garden supplies, pet essentials, trusted Stihl equipment, small engine repair, with more to come! They are also merging with their standing seam metal roofing and custom trim business that will be made on site. Even though updates and renovations are in progress the store has remained open to continue providing all of your feed and farm needs. Be sure to stop by to check it out and congratulate Lisa and Mike.
