Drink Flights have arrived at Little Scratch — check out options in pic 1. We’re debuting these for the uptown event taking place on Saturday, June 6 — more on that in a minute. With the purchase of a flight, you can also get 10% off your beans (must be purchased together).

Hello, Summer! is the Mount Vernon-Lisbon Community Development Group’s event, started last summer, that kicks off a summer of shopping local - intentionally spending more time and resources in our little community. Join us and get your first punch card! You’ll collect stamps from the shops for every $10 you spend uptown — between now and August! Full cards get entered in a drawing with tons of prizes/gift cards. Between Silver Spider, First St. Breakfast Co., Hilltop Plants and Records, Iron Leaf Press, Little Scratch, and other uptown spots, you’re spending it anyway! So you may as well get credit for it 😎

We are excited to host author Nick Narigon as part of his Midwest book tour. He’ll be selling books and talking lit at Little Scratch on Monday, May 4, 9:00-10:00 AM. Nick’s active in publishing with his company and his own writing. You’ve seen Iowa Weird, Vol. 1 and A Very Special Hayseed Christmas in our shop; both are put out by Nick and his brother Aaron’s Hayseed Press, with the honorable mission of promoting voices in the Heartland.

the quickest way isn’t always the best way. this warm season, take the Back Roads. there’ll be surprises along the way.

full pound, whole bean Back Roads is available at the summer market stand or in the shop at Little Scratch.
