Local, organic, sustainable ingredients. Butcher shop/ breakfast or lunch sandwich shop with a little gourmet market up front. Great place to grab a quick coffee bar, breakfast or lunch to stay or to go eat in the park. (quality meats, cheeses, specialty ciders, wines and snacks with one or 2 vegetarian options) Super cute.

Parks & Nature
Take a walk around and through the park. Nice to jog in the morning before the afternoon sun. Grab some local food and have a picnic on one of the many benches or a slice of grass. Nice to take a break and just relax or check out the basket ball court, skate board piazza or dog run. Awesome neighborhood vibes.
