In a part of the country where Bud Light, boxed wine and Mountain Dew reign supreme lies an oasis for those with a taste for the finer things. Main Street Produce is a combination produce store, bakery and gourmet food store highlighted by its own homemade preserves. However, there is something else unique about these homemade goodies. Included in the usual [fruit jellies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-concord-grape-jelly) is a diverse selection of gourmet wine jellies.

Main Street Produce's selection of gourmet wine jellies looks like it is taken from a page off the wine list of a fine dining restaurant. Furthermore, the [craft beer trend](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unconventional-rtd-cocktails) hasn't been overlooked. Belgian beer jellies, domestic micro-brew jellies and fruit-infused beer jellies are also available. The lesson here is to never judge a book by its cover. This un-pretentious yet colorful storefront is filled with mouth-watering gems that would fit nicely in any town's "Main" street.

Main Street Produce is located in Littleton, NC, near the Virginia border. It has just launched a website called [The Fermented Gourmet Shop](http://www.thefermentedgourmetshop.com). It is basically a two-person operation, and customers always feel welcome.

Gourmet wine jellies are a diamond in the rough to find as it is, so it's amazing to find such a diverse selection in such a remote area.
