This Massive Michigan Farm Market Is A Grocery Lover’s Dream With A Huge Selection

More than 200 cheeses. A soup bar with over 36 rotating flavors. Coffee roasted in small batches right on site. All of that sits under one roof in Michigan, and the roof covers about 70,000 square feet. The whole thing started as a tiny roadside fruit stand back in 1959. I love a glow-up story, and this one is a beauty.

A Walk in the Park: Delta Twp. celebrates new bridge, park connector path

A Walk in the Park is an ongoing series from State Journal photographer Nick King, who intends to explore Lansing area parks one hour at a time. If you have a suggestion of a park he should visit, email him at nking@lsj.com. Township officials and community members cut ribbons on Oct. 30 marking the opening of the Webster Road bridge and connector pathway, which links Delta Mills and Hawk Meadow parks. Nate Simon, a resident who lives near Delta Mills Park and attended the event with his 8-year-old son Lincoln, sees the improvements as a positive improvement. "I'm a fan. It's safer for kids crossing over to the park," said Simon, who said he appreciated the cement border along the bridge sidewalk that adds protection for pedestrians. "It's nice connecting all the trails. We have dogs and we go for a walk just about every day." Delta Township Trustee Andrea Cascarilla spoke during the event. "It represents something much bigger. The dedication to a connected recreation system brings our community together," said Cascarilla, before cutting the ribbon marking the opening to the connector pathway. Guests walked, biked and ran along the .83-mile long connector pathway, stopping to enjoy cider and

Owners of popular Old Town diner open Good Truckin' REO Town bites

LANSING — The owners of Good Truckin' Diner never intended to let the small storefront in REO Town where the business got its start over a decade ago sit empty for more than 18 months. Turning the 850-square-foot space at 1107 S. Washington Ave. into Good Truckin' REO Bites, a smaller offshoot of the diner that moved to Lansing's Old Town in 2025, took longer than Nick Sinicropi and business partner Nora Gorman thought it would. "We never planned for it to sit there that long," Sinicropi said. "It just, times got tough for everyone. I'm really excited to open." Good Truckin' Diner relocated to The Creole building at 1218 Turner St. in Old Town because it needed more room. The 134-year-old building was originally home to The Creole Cigar Co., then The Creole Gallery in the late 1990s. The Creole Burger Bar and Southern Kitchen closed there in September of 2024. Sinicropi and Gorman have transformed the original space on South Washington Avenue into a counter-service sandwich shop with a focus on a breakfast and all-day menu. The new restaurant opened its doors on Nov. 5 and offers a menu that includes hot dogs, tacos, hoagies, soft-serve ice cream,

Ham at room temp, spoiled chicken. What Eaton County inspectors found

CHARLOTTE — When county health inspectors visit local restaurants, they document problems that need addressing to meet standards set by Michigan food codes and law.

Priority foundation violations do not present immediate health hazards but should be corrected in a timely manner. Consequently, follow-up inspections and reports may be generated. In most cases, violations are corrected, and this information isn't an indication that violations at any establishment are an ongoing issue. Here are the most serious violations found in Eaton County restaurants and eating establishments for October Three priority violations and two priority foundation violations were found at: KPOT Korean BBQ & Hot Pot, 5924 W.
