Come be a part of the Greater Lansing Beer Trail with this young lady. There are 10 breweries involved and all ten have a hidden gnome on their property. Find the gnome. Write down the secret word. Buy a beer. Visit all ten breweries and get all ten secret words to make a sentence. Make sure to get your cards signed at each brewery that you visit. And leave your completed card at the last brewery and let them know which brewery you plan to pick up your prize. The Beer Trail goes from August 1st - 31st and please drink responsibly. It is not recommended to visit more than 2-3 breweries in one day.

Shop local for books while you enjoy tasty treats at Social Sloth Cafe and Bakery!

Come join us at one of our downtown Lansing favorites, , on Saturday 7/24!

We have new inventory arriving this week, including a few popular restocks. We’ve got a bunch of children’s books on the way and also received a donation box with tons of comics and graphic novels.

We’re always looking for donations of gently used books so that we can keep working toward our mission of sustainable bookselling. Sometimes new books are the move, especially when bought locally, but we also are big believers in 📚

Can’t wait to see you soon!
