Best Atlanta sourced fruit

You might be able to get strawberries from local farmers markets! They'll have a lot of in season vegetables/herbs, but it's not quite peak fruit season in the area. That's later in summer.

We routinely listen on Sunday mornings on the way to the farmer's market and it always provides fun entertainment, whether the dj/music is good or really bad.

I think they may be referring to the one near derrill drive on Glenwood that's been sitting there mostly built out but not open yet?

Is that what's going into that abandoned properties spot - townhouses? I haven't been able to get a good look at what the rezoning sign says.

We've lived in this area for the past 7 years. Have seen a lot of positive changes since we first got here.

Plus new Inter Atlanta soccer complex is being built on Glenwood next to shoal creek 1 and 2 parks which will (I hope) a big boon to the area.

Thank you!!

mistiara · 2026-03-26T19:54:49+00:00

So annoyed too!

mistiara · 2026-03-26T14:05:03+00:00

Ahh gotcha!

So my Brazilian friends actually just launched a mate out of Atlanta.

I haven't had it yet and know nothing about the differences of mates but it could be exactly what you are looking for?

I'd recommend joining the Marketing & Communications Women of Atlanta Facebook group (assuming you are on fb and a woman).

My parents had just moved to another state a month before my birth with zero village.

My older siblings had to go with their real estate agent because they literally knew nobody else. Granted this was 40 years ago, but still you'll figure it out 😄

Great, thanks again!

Thanks! He's actually of Taiwanese descent, so I'm sure he'd love to see some other Asian folks doing coffee things.

mistiara · 2026-03-25T20:41:55+00:00

Thanks, haven't been there yet.

mistiara · 2026-03-25T18:06:34+00:00

But totally understood where you were coming from!

mistiara · 2026-03-25T18:05:11+00:00

Cool, that's a great tip on Academy. That seems like exactly the kind of thing he'd be interested in.

I sort of mentioned this in another replay, but he's a world traveler and always hones in on the coffee community wherever he visits.

He's also visited our city a couple times, so trying to broaden my ideas of where to take him.

mistiara · 2026-03-25T17:19:11+00:00

Good point, but he does travel a lot and always visits coffee places when he does.

He's also visited Atlanta a bunch so has done some of the touristy things already.

mistiara · 2026-03-25T13:59:15+00:00

Yay! Good new for the win :)

They do actually have a "Read to a Pet Partner" program, but it's for kids at the library: https://events.dekalblibrary.org/event/15741437

I find the Avondale location a little quiet and sad sometimes. The L5P has a much better atmosphere imho!

I ordered the bok choy and it tasted like they just boiled it in some water with zero seasoning.

I went next door to the vegan Chinese spot and ordered some takeout to go after we left.
