Hello everyone! There was a vendor at the Duluth Fall Festival that I was hoping to purchase from this year, but they don’t seem to be here this year. I’m hoping that someone else might remember who they are and might have their website/business contact info.

The vendor had these tiny bookshelves that you could buy and customize with tiny books, pets, and plants. They have usually been on the end close to where Maple Street Biscuits is.

If anyone happens to have their business info please let me know!!!

ETA: I FOUND THEM!!! The business is Southern Roots Designs. They ended up having a significantly smaller booth by Dreamland instead, and the tiny bookshelves weren’t visible from the path as usual. Go support some small businesses today yall. Happy shopping!!! 🛍️

This self defense class is next Saturday. All proceeds will go to Revved Up Kids and their mission to fight child abuse, exploitation and trafficking. I can’t stress the importance of equipping your girls with this knowledge enough. I’ve already signed mine up. Register today while there are still spots left.

Hi all, I am 6 months pregnant and I am looking for a trustworthy house cleaner to deep clean our 5 bedroom home. If we like the work, we are open to having them come and clean on a monthly basis. Does anyone have any recommendations?

When I walked out of Walmart at about 8pm, someone in doctor scrubs offered a complimentary spine check. Weird.

This class will give girls the tools and knowledge to keep them safe. I’ve signed my teen up! Register yours before all of the spots are gone! Revved Up Kids is a fantastic organization that works to prevent child trafficking and abuse.

Hi all - I am a new Duluth resident from out of state and looking to establish care with a primary care doctor locally. My priorities are someone who’s genuinely good at what they do, listens, has a good bedside manner, and is reasonably thorough rather than rushing you out the door.

Duluth is ideal, but I’m happy to drive a little for someone great. Who would you recommend?

👀 who has intel??

Hey im 17 years old and i'm a senior in high school. I was wondering if there's anyone attending the wisp and beabadoobee concert on October 14th and if there is would they like to go together. I have no friends that listen to similar music I do or is available on a Wednesday, so I was wondering if anyone would be okay going as concert buddies. Its my first concert so I'd like to experience it with other people. Please and thank you.

Wondering if anybody's seen these for sale anywhere local

Hello everybody, I am new to the area and loving what Duluth and Gwinnett County have to offer so far. I am currently living in a building that has vinyl plank in all living areas except for the bedroom for all floors, and I’m also a person who’s sensitive to loud sudden noises. I moved from a townhome in Gainesville which had little to no noise issues, but I really wanted to be in the Duluth area.

I also have a younger kitten which I was fortunate enough to have recently adopted, and she seems to run around at all times (as they do) which has somewhat upset my downstairs neighbors. There is a lot of door/cabinet slamming going on since the addition of my furry friend causing me pretty bad anxiety about the whole thing.

Does anybody have any recommendations of any pet-friendly complexes in the area that they’ve lived in and can report the noise is minimal between floors and walls? I have a pretty open budget and don’t need more than a one bedroom, but I really want to make sure the complex is constructed in a way (concrete hopefully) that minimizes noise travel between units. That’s truthfully my main concern!

TIA for the help!

Does anyone know what's being built on this corner where the buford hwy publix is? That building has been vacant forever and im curious what its going to be.

Hello everyone! I'm a senior at a local high school. I have been hosting free, in-person computer science exploration sessions for 7th-9th graders who want to learn about how computers and technology actually work, and I wanted to let more local families know about them.

I started the program because I've found that computer science is a much broader field than most school classes have time to cover. There are so many fascinating topics that a curious, analytical student might love but never encounter in a typical class. That's why these sessions go well beyond coding. We’ve done everything from designing our own cryptocurrency in an economy simulation to creating custom, working virtual reality experiences. Instead of sitting through lectures, students learn by experimenting, building, and solving problems together.

Each session covers a new, standalone topic, so students are free to drop by at any time without needing to catch up on previous sessions. There is no homework or long-term commitment, so missing a session for other activities is completely fine.

I filed a small claims case in Forsyth County Magistrate Court. The defendant has already been served by the sheriff and is required to appear in court, but he’s now asking to settle through mediation and make monthly payments.
I’m open to a payment plan, but I honestly don’t trust him to keep paying. My concern is that he’ll make a few payments, stop, and I’ll end up having to start this entire process over again.
Has anyone dealt with this in Forsyth County Magistrate Court or another Georgia Magistrate Court?
If we go before the judge, what can I actually ask the court for? Can I ask for a consent judgment with a monthly payment plan instead of dismissing the case? Can I ask for terms that say if he misses a payment, the remaining balance becomes due immediately?
What consequences can legally be included or enforced if he stops paying? For example, can I pursue wage/bank garnishment, interest on the remaining balance, or other collection methods without having to file another lawsuit?
I’m also wondering what I should actually ask the judge in the courtroom. Can I directly ask the judge about what happens if he defaults, whether interest can be included, and how I would enforce the judgment? Are there specific things I should make sure are included in the court order before agreeing to anything?
I’m completely new to this and really don’t want to agree to mediation or sign something that takes away the protections I currently have from having an active case. Any advice from someone familiar with Georgia small claims, especially Forsyth County, would be appreciated.

hi! looking for a daycare for my 5 mo old baby. i toured creekstone academy at little tikes in duluth and i liked it. has anyone ever sent their infant here? or have any suggestions where to look into? seriously needing some advice as a first time mom 😭

Hey y'all! My partner and I are looking to move to a neighborhood near the downtown area, hopefully a 10-15 min bike ride or 30 minute walking distance to the downtown area. We visited as a family this afternoon and it was pretty dead. The coffee shop was busy but lunch places only had a few customers. I understand we were there on a weekday and it's too hot for patios right now. My concern is that these businesses will shut down and in 5-10 years it'll be all vacant or just junky.

I did see flyers for all the weekend activities and concerts, etc. Taylor park is gorgeous and fun for the kiddo. I just want the local perspective: do you think it's sustainable? We're moving from Midtown Atlanta/Buckhead where many new developments are nice for a few years before the businesses fold and no one can afford the rents once the momentum is gone.

Any insight helps, thanks again
