After tasting Loveland Coffee at a local establishment and loving it, we realized the company roasted locally in the neighboring town of Irmo, SC!
Normally I am a health nut but I do splurge when out like I did with this perfect coffee cake to accompany my cappuccino. We will definitely be back here for the amazing coffee! This is a small, socially responsible business which feels good to support.
Since Irmo is not a town we have really visited since we were house hunting, we decided to explore its lovely town park.
There are beautiful flowers, plants and trees around a pond to enjoy.
The park also features a Little Free Library (take a book, leave a book).
Fun playground pieces for the kids.
Walking trails throughout.
An amphitheater.
This park is also home to the annual Okra Strut. Jim and I have attempted to like okra. So far we have found we only like them pickled or in a tomato dish that Jim makes. It is an odd veggie, but common around here since it has been a local crop for centuries.
If you go, the Irmo Community Park is located at 7507 Eastview Drive. Open 7am - 10pm. Restrooms are conveniently on site.
Have a marvelous day/evening (wherever you are on the clock)! ~Val
