There's
a New Age feel in Merchantville
and it's co-mingling nicely with the older, more established businesses. A
thriving yoga studio and an acupuncturist share the downtown streetscape with
Wirth Florists and Aunt Charlotte's candy store, two merchants who have
operated in Merchantville
for generations.
"I
think it's great if Merchantville
can capitalize on the niche market," said Randi Oakford, co-owner of Aunt
Charlotte's, which was opened in 1921 and now is operated by the granchildren
of the original owner. "I wouldn't think of opening a store
anywhere else," said her father, Brooks Oakford, 80. "Merchantville has been good to
us."
