A unique shopping experience near Joshua Tree Park

Desert General, founded by Franco-American Francoise Lazard in November 2022, embodies the essence of a classic rural country store. Having been weekenders in Twentynine Palms for over 20 years, Francoise and her husband Patrick made the permanent move from Los Angeles to the desert three years ago. At Desert General, we uphold the timeless tradition of offering quality, durable goods to local old-timers, new-comers, and travellers alike, welcoming all who appreciate the charm of desert living.

With a passion for curating an eclectic range of products, including art, books, unique objects, clothing accessories, we take pride in offering something for every taste and interest. At Desert General, shopping is an interactive and immersive adventure, leaving a lasting impression.

Additionally, we are honored to host the annual Twentynine Palms Book Festival, celebrating literature and creativity in our vibrant community.

DESERT GENERAL IS THE ORGANIZER OF THE TWENTYNINE PALMS BOOK FESTIVAL

We’re all about bringing rural communities together through periodic cultural events across the High Desert.  

Stay tuned for the Twentynine Palms Book Festival 2024– an annual event celebrating American West and desert-inspired stories and promoting Twentynine Palms’ heritage and local talent.
