Alabama NewsCenter — Jefferson Country Store has been pleasing Alabama visitors for decades

For more than half a century, Jefferson Country Store has offered grocery staples and a place to gather for the tiny community of Jefferson in Marengo County. Today, the store serves a much larger population – with people coming from miles away, and even other states, to enjoy a burger or some homemade pimento cheese or to pick up an occasional slab of ribs. And they still can buy a Milo’s tea or a jar of Wickles Pickles or some hoop cheese while they’re there.
This wider reach is a direct result of the hard work and genuine hospitality of the third generation of store owners, Tony Luker and Betsy Compton Luker – and their savvy use of social media.
