Joanna and Chip started Magnolia in 2003, but closed it so they could focus on their family and construction business, they were finally able to reopen the shop in 2014 and turn it in to so much more.

“Chip and I run a few businesses here in Waco, Texas, but Magnolia Market holds a special place in my heart. This entire business idea was born completely out of a dream I didn’t know could ever come to life. It’s truly only because a fiercely faithful, brave and bold husband pushed me to pursue my dream that it ever came to be,” Joanna wrote on Magnolia’s website. 

Magnolia’s twitter account also shared a message with more details on their contribution efforts: “Magnolia Market will be donating net profits from this past weekend’s sales to organizations helping the victims, their families & the communities impacted by the recent tragedies. We're organizing a blood drive in Waco for Magnolia employees & visitors in the upcoming days.”
