==Whole Earth Retail Outlets== In the early 1970's the Whole Earth Truck Store was opened in Menlo Park, California. This small store sold a variety of books described in the Whole Earth Catalog, as well as hard-to-find household goods, tools, and other items. In the 1980's the Whole Earth Access store opened in Berkeley, California. It sold a variety of products including tools, furniture, cameras, electronic devices and clothing. Branch stores in San Mateo and San Jose soon followed. This business thrived into the 1990's but eventually succumbed to competition from more specialized retailers, established department stores, and national chains of discount stores. The website for Whole Earth Access still offers a few items for sale directly over the internet but is apparently unmaintained. The Whole Earth Provision Company, based on the Whole Earth Catalog, was founded in 1970 in Texas and now has six locations, in Austin, Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio. It also has a web site wholeearthprovision.com. [[Category:Whole Earth]]
