Timothy Scott Invites Black and Brown Folks to Enjoy the Outdoors with Urban Nature Connection
Timothy Scott finds being outside therapeutic, which is why he founded Urban Nature Connection (UNC), a nonprofit organization that offers free and accessible opportunities year-round for Black and Brown folks to be immersed in Milwaukee nature. “We can go fishing, or plant a garden, or go for a walk, or just do nothing,” Scott says. With UNC, he is eager to share the physical and mental health benefits of taking walks, going on bike rides and getting fresh air with as many folks as he can. “I’m hearing that a lot of people are more comfortable walking when they’re out there with others.

Cocina Filipina Serves Filipino Fare With a New Look
Upbeat energy is flowing again inside a Near West Side building that first popped up on our radars in 2019 as Triciclo Perú. Sometime after the Peruvian place closed in 2023, Lisa Kaye Bistro brought pasties and oxtail-short rib sandwiches, only for the spot to be vacant again last spring.

Besides needing a home base, Cocina was ready to move on from the late 2025 fire that temporarily shut it down.
