Whether you are a parent looking for something for the family or a college student that just wants to mingle, we have your idea of fun covered. We are geared towards the crowd that doesn’t just lounge in their free time. If you want to have the best time possible in the city of Dothan, then check ou

t the upcoming event calendar in The Local. We have put together a definitive dining list to spark the interest of people who have never sampled some of the independently owned fabulous eateries but still want to discover the true taste of Dothan. The city is indeed full of corporate restaurants ready to deliver the same experience and recipes which are favorites around the country, but we would like to put a spotlight on the small proprietor ships that are doing things their way. This gives you a true sense of what a treat Dothan dining can be.

I realized I haven’t shared my last two lifestyle articles with you all and I want you to be able to read them even if you’re far away! This month’s article is titled “Preserving Summer” 🍓🌻 You can pick up a free copy inside Well Rooted!

Did you know I’ve been a lifestyle writer for our local paper for over 4 years now? Every month I’ve been putting out articles for our community. Covering everything from self-care tips and gardening advice to lifestyle switches, local businesses to support, and so much more!

Having this platform to share my voice, spread positivity, and encourage change has been such a blessing. I’m truly grateful for anyone who takes the time to read 💛
