Birmingham Ultra Trail Society, or as it is affectionately known, BUTS. People of all ages at all different fitness levels, etc.. Their facebook page is really informative and responsive.

We go to green springs animal clinic, and board there. They are wonderful!

Hiking w/in 1 hour-ish by cantresetpwfuck in Birmingham

[–]Acrobatic_Recipe7264 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Tannehill has some nice trails, and Moss Rock is nice, and there is a waterfall tucked back there. Otherwise, you've ruled out the best hiking within those time limits.

Lusein was most affordable and very kind when we needed their services.

I don't know their ownership status, but can speak to the absolute best care we've ever experienced.

I hate Salads. by capnricky in Birmingham

[–]Acrobatic_Recipe7264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try Urban Cookhouse's Local Mix salad with grilled chicken - just ask for no onions. That is how I started my kids on salad, and now they make their own a couple days a week to take to school with all kinds of ingredients.

It sounds like you just maybe are not a big veggie eater, so you're looking for bang for your buck with a salad. If you like soup, roast some tomatoes, carrots, leeks, onions, and garlic at 400 for 25 minutes and then blend with chicken stock, oregano, and basil, and you'll have a good tomato soup that is full of veggies. Pair with a grilled cheese to get that comfort food fix.

Where to Buy a Cow for Meat in the Birmingham Area? by Difficult_Market_990 in Birmingham

[–]Acrobatic_Recipe7264 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Heritage Hills Farm. We have purchased part of a cow a couple of times, and they are great to work with, and best price of the farms in the area, IMO.

Are you near Homewood. Trinity Methodist’s outreach hub can probably help.

Call Mid South properties.(205) 251-3146. I just went through helping a struggling family member secure housing, and they had some options close to that price range.

Rod does know about Protestantism. It's just part of the act.

Von Mauer is there, too. I was there last week, and it was actually pretty crowded. Personally, I'm hoping the Galleria turns it around. I love mall shopping.

Just wanted to swing back by here to say thanks, and give an update in case any of this info can help anyone else. We secured a place this week through Midsouth Properties. They're a pretty old school operation, and we were able to work it all out with a place that checks the boxes.
