May is full of some amazing things. Voters for Godfrey-Lee Public Schools pass a sinking millage for the district and the 28th Street Metro Cruise Dust-Off took place. The local farmers markets are preparing to open with Metro Health Farm Market underway and the Kentwood Farmers Market set to start in June.
Speaking of June, the 49th Annual Festival of the Arts is just around the corner on June 1, 2, and 3 in downtown Grand Rapids. A celebration of the arts, the event recently hired an interim director, David Abbott, who stopped by the station to talk about his story of Festival. Also stopping by was LocalFirst Marketing Manager Mieke Stoub who talks to us about how to search the LocalFirst directory to help with a range of needs from spring cleaning to lawn care.
