There are so many unique and wonderful things we love about Milwood; Urban Holler, the Little Free Greenhouse, all the Little Free Libraries, the Milwood Little League opening day parade, Buddy Bear, Stunt Double Dave, El Concilio Kzoo, and the many awesome taco options are just a few of our neighborhood highlights. What are a few of your favorite things about the Milwood neighborhood and/or community?
