Coming Soon: Gray Jay Provisions
We are eagerly awaiting the opening of Gray Jay Provisions - a new artisan sandwich shop and market opening this Fall on South High Street. They will offer sandwiches on house-made sour dough, and locally sourced goods for your pantry. Think house-made kimchi, krauts, pickles, and more...delicious! Soula Pefkaros, head of all things marketing, shared with us some of her passion and gave us more details on this exciting new venture coming to Harrisonburg!

Summer Home Maintenance Guide: Upkeep Without a Sweat
You're sitting cool and calm in the air conditioning, perhaps enjoying a nice cold glass of lemonade or sweet tea on ice. You decide to head outside and soak in some sunshine, but as soon as you open the door, a wall of heat knocks you off your feet. It's hot outside, and your home is working overtime, so we suggest taking care of a few things that will give your house a little respite. Bonus: there are only a couple of things to do outdoors, so you can accomplish these Summer Home Maintenance tasks without too much of a sweat!
