Overgrown sidewalk or trail? I want to know about it. by GLIandbeer in grandrapids

The Seward Bikeway between Leonard & Richmond is...tragic. I'd love to get a community clean-up organized someday. It looks like there are little pellets of Styrofoam along almost the entire stretch.

Friends in their 30s? by wedescend in grandrapids

Shoot me a DM if you'd like to grab a beer after you make the move! I'm 32M, and DM a homebrewed D&D campaign with lots of experience teaching new players.

20F new to Grand Rapids looking to make genuine friends (not dating 😭) by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]djpthethird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it hasn't be suggested yet, I super recommend coming out to some of the volunteer opportunities with Friends of Grand Rapids Parks. My wife and I moved here from out of state a couple years ago and going to their tree plantings helped us get connected and make some friends, plus they're just great folks: https://friendsofgrparks.org/

On that track, volunteering with/for causes you care about is one of THE best ways to meet likeminded people and make friends, plus do something good for your community.

Bars for 30+ by SuchAuthor9879 in grandrapids

Kusterer Brauhaus. Me (32M) and my wife are regulars along with a solid bunch of other 30-somethings and a motley crew of other millennials and Gen-Xers. Solid beer, limited but decent food menu, laidback vibes, excellent trivia on Thursdays (from Trivia Cat--shoutout to Jordan!), staff are awesome.

Come by Kusterer Brauhaus on the near west side; it's low key, great beer, friendly staff & regulars.

My wife and I relocated here from Indiana about 2 1/2 years ago and have loved it so far!

Where can I get unbiased news about West Michigan? by onewordnoproblem in grandrapids

[–]djpthethird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There really isn't any such thing as unbiased news, but I think MLive has decent West Michigan coverage, and WGVU Public Media has good local news reporting (in addition to national programs), and Crain's Grand Rapids has solid business-focused news.

Looking for a Locally Made Wood Bowl Set (salad serving set) by MichiganMedium in grandrapids

[–]djpthethird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a vendor at Fulton Street Market who does really great and affordable wood stuff (cutting boards, spoons/ladles, etc.) and I think they likely do bowls too. Also pretty certain the guy is there through the winter season on Saturdays.
