šŸ  Lowe Mill’s Outdoor Markets Are Back!

The Avett Brothers Concert, A Wrinkle in Time Play, Paper Flower Bouquet Workshop, New Ditto Landing Event Center, Capriotti's Sandwich Shop Opening, and more!

Hey, Huntsville, did you end up going to Porch Fest? Luckily, we got a few hours of no rain to keep the festival alive, and I had a great time. Even with the rain, there was still an excellent turnout.

If you're a music fan, I recommend attending the Avett Brothers concert at the Orion this weekend. I saw them in Huntsville a couple of years ago, and they were very talented.

If you want to try something new, I recently went to the new Razzo Pizzeria and enjoyed it! Stop by and grab a slice this weekend.
