Youit Jones, owner of Holy’istic Health wants to talk customers on a health journey similar to his own.
Jones’ search for a way to living healthier led to him starting his company. Initially, he was supposed to debut at the April’s Woodlawn Street Market, but, because of the pandemic, he and a group of other vendors pivoted to participate in the first and now ongoing virtual market. REV recently talked to Jones about his personal and professional journey.

We had new opportunities to create positive experiences, inviting them into more downtown businesses and public spaces, and to keep them coming back for more.

Since autumn of 2021, Woodlawn Marketplace has stood tall in its place at 5530 1st Ave S. Originally planned as a month-long mini market experience featuring seasoned Woodlawn Street Market vendors, the project was met with such a positive reception that the REV team decided to press on and launch a larger, more permanent version. In the months following that decision, the space has undergone a transformation, evolving into a local retail incubator and café. Now, the heart and soul of the marketplace is supporting local businesses and building community in the historic Woodlawn business district.
