#16: Amanda Hayden - Cafe 212

She Achieved with Albine Bennett

Amanda has spent the majority of her life in Tupelo, except for a brief period residing overseas in London. Her profound affection for her hometown is undeniable, with Tupelo's close-knit and supportive community holding a special place in her heart.

As the owner and operator of Cafe 212 in downtown Tupelo, alongside her husband, Jason, Amanda is on the verge of celebrating 18 years of business success and 20 years of a strong and enduring marriage. Their combined dedication to both their cafe and each other is truly remarkable.

Beyond their thriving business, Amanda and Jason have been actively engaged in numerous community events and projects focused on enhancing the quality of life in their city through the arts and entertainment. Their unwavering commitment to Tupelo's cultural growth is truly admirable.

Amanda and Jason are fortunate to have the support and presence of their wonderful families living nearby. Their love for travel is beautifully balanced by a deep appreciation for the comforts of home life, particularly when spent in the company of their two beloved dogs, Oso and Biscuit.

Their countryside sanctuary is a 102-year-old farmhouse with deep familial roots, originally belonging to Amanda's great-grandmother. The five-year renovation journey has transformed it into their absolute favorite place, a cherished retreat that they hold dear.
