Roy Webster reflects on House of Webster and old fashioned foods
Roy Webster runs the House of Webster in Rogers Arkansas producing nostalgic preserved foods and country kitchen appliances. He mails 100000 catalogs yearly and sells gift packages to corporations while maintaining a plant in Eastman Texas. The Websters face scarce wild fruits as modern life expands and rely on vintage jars, biscuit mix, and commemorative containers to evoke rural memories.
