I work at a local business nearby and I believe the owner came in today wearing one of their uniforms and I asked when they would be open and he said and I quote: "We will be open tomorrow, come stop by and try it out." to which I replied that I would because I live and work close by.

If you’re looking for a place to get pumpkins, I highly suggest Binkley Baptist Church. They’ve got some really nice pumpkins and all the proceeds from the sales go to the Interfaith Council, IFC, who helps settle homeless folks into apartments. 
They’re open 10-6 every day!

I was born in 1959 and raised in Chapel Hill during the '60s. I have incredible memories of the town, our neighborhood on Rosemary Street, the people, and the university where my father was a professor of English Literature.

To my young mind, it seemed like a wildly creative and artistic time. The arts were embraced, stunning mid-century homes were popping up (my uncle was an architect in Raleigh), and the town was alive with energy. My mother would help out on local puppet shows like The Jabberwocky (my fav). My brother and I would meet up with friends and wander the area exploring or digging under the Kenan Stadium fence to catch a football game. We always made sure to be home before dinner though!

We had a large family where the unstated motto was "the more the merrier", so we grew up meeting a kaleidoscope of interesting and provocative house guests. On Sundays, we attended Mass mostly without complaint, because the next stop was always the Franklin Street Dairy Bar for donuts - heaven!

It wasn't totally idyllic, as this was also the turbulent 1960s. My mother made us acutely aware of racial inequality, encouraging us to protest downtown for civil rights and against the war.

I eventually returned as a freshman at UNC in '79 and loved the town all over again. Shout out to all the folks from that era who share memories of that special time! Anyone else remember any old Franklin St stores or the to-die-for Dairy Bar donuts?

Do you think this is a good idea? Carrboro town council says it will save Carrboro money and deliver better service. What do y'all over in Chapel Hill think about it?

Two new items added this week! Heliopsis helianthoides, Early Sunflower, and Phlox divaricata, Wild Blue Phlox.

Wild Blue Phlox is found in the mountains and Piedmont of NC in moist shady conditions. Only growing to be about a foot tall, it makes a great border or ground cover for your shade garden.

Early Sunflower is also found in the Piedmont and mountains of NC but in drier, sunnier spots. It typically only grows to be 3-4' tall and just as wide, but will spread by seed and rhizome to fill in an area or compete in your grassland.

We will be open this Saturday 9-4 at 5911 Mount Hermon Church Rd. in Durham. If Saturdays don't work for you, you can place an order online and schedule a time to pick up at a time that is more convenient.

Many trees are and all annuals are currently discounted 20-50% off at this time. The annuals are basically being sold as seed for next years plants as of now, but they will all easily germinate without any help.

Any experience with Carraway Village apartments — In particular the tower? Relocating from out of state for a job at UNC.

Please help! Xoxo

I’m a land surveyor based out of Charlotte. Recently I was doing some work on MLK JR BLVD and the contractor has a question about a pipe I located. I can’t remember if it had a grate on it or not. I just need a picture of this particular pipe at 613 MLK Jr Blvd right by the Red Circle.

Hi, I'm a freelance reporter working on a story about managing food insecurity when you or a family member has food allergies or sensitivities. Are you able to afford the foods you need or find them at local food pantries? How does the additional cost of the food you need affect your budget? If this sounds like you or someone you know, please reply to this post. I'm hoping to talk for 20-30 minutes on the phone or Zoom. Thanks!
