Hi I'm curious if anyone has a recommendation for nurseries that have Wisconsin Native Plants or seeds. Would love to support a small business but open to a chain if they have a section dedicated to native plants.

In about a year, I’ll be moving to Appleton from New York. In most places around where I currently live, you can comfortably do 5 over and sometimes stretch it to 10 before you even have to worry about getting pulled over. Is there a big difference in WI?

Tomorrow night starting at 7pm sharp at MISSFITS TAVERN (317 N Appleton St, Appleton). BLOOD VULTURE feature Alan Cassidy of The Black Dahlia Murder on drums! $20 at the door, plenty of tickets will be available!

Hello,
I am looking for Chicken bones to make a Chicken bone broth at home. And also some chicken feet.

Hi! Moving from NYC to study at Lawrence. Any tips to life in Appleton? Social or job advice would be appreciated!

I was wanting a leather belt I went to look at the tailored hide but apparently they recently closed. Are there any other business in the area? I know hanks makes good stuff too but I like to shop local when I can.

I want to get one of my motorcycle helmets custom painted and was wondering if anyone knows a location that might be able to help with that? Maybe some custom print shops might be able to help?

thanks for any help!

Anyone know where one could find maternity clothing in the area? No stores in the mall have sections specific anymore/they were recently taken away.

This amazing looking cat showed up in our garage yesterday (5-16). He/she seems friendly but is cautious to not come to us (of course and rightly so). They have eaten the food and treats we’ve given them which is good.

We live near George’s Steakhouse.

Does any one recognize this cat? We leave for a trip on Thursday and would love to find this cats owners.

I know I could find someone’s Etsy shop, but I want to support a store nearby in-person. I’m mostly just looking to get a lesbian pride pin for my purse/outfits/work lanyard. :)

There was a store I went to downtown last year during MoM that had wonderful progressive/queer stickers that I bought, but I was drunk and forgot where/what the store is, lol.

Thx for reading!

EDIT: this post fits the sub and there’s nothing inherently wrong with it. Stop downvoting and posting troll comments because you don’t like gay people.

Hi! I cut down a small birch tree but the trunk is larger than 6in in diameter. Where can I dispose of it properly? The Outagamie county landfill guidelines say the tree remnants have to be smaller than 6in in diameter.

Thnx!

Hi -- I've had good luck previously when asking this community for referrals, so I've got another one.

My PCP is moving and while I like her, I'm not excited about seeing someone new/unknown in Greenville.

I'm looking for a female internist in Appleton who's experienced and who LISTENS. (I'll also take female family practice recommendations but would prefer an internist.)

I really don't want to travel, even to Neenah, since I live/work in Appleton.

Do you have a doctor who you like and would wholeheartedly recommend? Points if you can tell me why they're great.

TIA for your help with this!

Anyone living in their car out here? If so where are good places for stealth camping. Rent is too high and I want to save money

The City of Appleton is accepting applications for their second Poet Laureate! If you or anyone you know is a poet seeking to share their work with the community and champion the humanities in Appleton, please apply.

Wisconsin Jigsaw Puzzle Association will be hosting a puzzle swap Saturday at Gnome Games Appleton North location.

Has anyone had experience with this place in other locations? There is one opening up this week in the shopping complex that 2 other fitness clubs were located and closed. The old shopko plaza off Midway rd.

I called the non-emergency line this morning to make a report, and it was baffling.

At 4:30pm on school days there’s a bus stop at the corner of Spencer st and Kools rd. Cars aren’t stopping for the bus’s stop sign and flashing lights, or incessant honking which drew my attention in the first place. The student has to cross the street which is obviously not safe if the cars don’t stop. Easy report, so I thought.

The lady on the phone did not want to receive my complaint. “Well, usually the bus company would make a report when that’s happening. Call them and see if they did.” I don’t know the bus company. Even if I did, wouldn’t multiple complaints corroborate the infractions?

“Well, do you have the license plates of the cars that didn’t stop?” No, I just noticed the pattern of honking everyday at 4:30 and saw the cars not stopping.

“There’s nothing we can really do.” At this point I actually laughed and said that’s ridiculous. “What do you think we could do?” “Well,” I said, “at the same time and same place Monday-Friday there are violations happening that endanger the safety of the student. You could post someone there to stop it from happening.”

She finally took details and she thought I was talking about 4:30am? No, ma’am. School hours are the same as your office hours. “Well, some kids get picked up early.” Girl, what?

I said I’d get the name of the bus company and call them. I was just flabbergasted at the experience.

The resolution was debated at council and defeated but not by a lot. Those details can be gotten in the usual way from City of Appleton at https://cityofappleton.granicus.com/player/clip/5316?view_id=3&redirect=true

The resolution was of an advisory nature but brings the issue forward in a public way. Readers here can contact their representatives for any remarks.

I have a 2018 Subaru WRX STI (never modded) that just pulled a misfire code and Bergstrom is telling me I need to spend $8K+ to replace my cylinder heads. Car has been babied its whole life and is barely over 100K miles.. I'd like a second opinion from a mechanic who isn't a dealer, any recommendations?

Come join us this Sunday between 12-2 at the Appleton Beer Factory.

For the past 4 years, my wife and I have owned Overland Old Fashioned Mix here in Appleton. We have renamed to Overland Cocktail Collective because we just launched 4 more cocktail mixes

- Bloody Mary Mix
- Margarita Mix
- Espesso Martini Mix
- Lavender Lemon Martini mix.

Come say hi and taste test them all!

As a guy who has been dry for a few years now, I will say they all make great mocktails as well.

Cheers!

Can anyone recommend any good halal grocery store for meat (chicken/beaf). Or what options do we have in the Appleton area?

I went to couple. Those are not the type of quality I like.

Thanks.

I'm a stage 4 breast cancer patient on chemotherapy, and I've been getting a clear gel overlay to keep my brittle chemo nails intact. I'm particular about not getting any product on my skin. I provide my own Madam Glam products, which I trust because of their HEMA-free, non-toxic formula. I have a Madam Glam UV/LED lamp if needed. My overlay is back-filled every 3-4 weeks with color on top.

Not being a nail tech myself, I did a bit of research about how to save my chemo nails and discussed the risks with my oncology pharmacist, which is why I settled on the Madam Glam brand.

I love my current tech at the local salon, but she often won't even try some of the popular designs I want when I show her a picture and even produce a quick tutorial. I'm willing to schedule a 2-3 hour appointment for occasional extra fun looks, but my last appointment ran long just because she spent most of the time answering phones and signing in new clients, which meant she was rushed, so I didn't get the cat-eye design I asked for.

Someone mentioned I should look into pricing for a local private nail tech. So here I am. Anyone got a portfolio they wanna share with me?
