“Awesome, friendly people here. My husband rents tools here often for home projects. They have a free section outside their door, at least on 9/13/23, they did. And they have several things for sale in the entrance too! I told my husband to buy anything he wanted - he did! The only thing I would recommend, to be changed, is to make the signage - BIGGER -... The first picture (hopefully the way Google portrays them, it'll be my first picture,) shows how small the Tool Library sign is. That'd be my only suggestion! Great parking available, many entrances available too! Check their website for varying hours!”
“The best croissant and café (coffee) in the Twin Cities can be had here. Very friendly people, and real French speakers! A little slice of authentic France in Minnesota!”

“We volunteered there during Xcel Energy's Day of Service. We had a smaller group, but we were able to prep a large number of school supply boxes for those schools and teachers who students are in the most need. A very fulfilling day was had by all.”
“Great helping service, just do your car a favor and NEVER park here. I live across street and NOBODY that goes there can drive. Must see someone run into something every day”
“We worked with Brad and Harvest Pack for a project at Camp Cole in South Carolina and truly couldn't have asked for a better experience! The kids loved the project and getting to give back to the community. The organization, dedication, and passion of the Harvest Pack team shines through in every way. Thanks Brad and Harvest Pack!”

“We went for the fish fry and the line was out the door and the parking lot packed. We learned quickly while in line that there was a takeout option so we seized it. I should've taken pics but the food was amazing. They served us in seconds and we brought it home. Everything was still hot and fresh. The fish was incredible, a wonderful crisp breading and well seasoned. The slaw was actually refreshing and light. The perogies had a nice chewy wrapper and delicious filling with caramelized onions and sour cream served with it. The little dessert was amazing. Not too sweet filling in an impressive choux pastry. Very impressed!”
“i love this studio! one yoga holds a broad selection of class offerings from physically challenging to gentle + restorative. the environment is embracing, supportive, and diverse. it's also located in one of my favorite areas in the twin cities, seward neighborhood. highly recommended for the newest practitioners or those who are well acquainted with the path of all that yoga offers. there are classes, workshops, and events for everyone in their beautiful bohemian environment within the ivy building. be sure to check out the periodic sound bath offerings created by the amazing tamiko french, (a truly transformational experience).”
“I went to Phyllis Wheatley for COVID testing. I didn't realize the State had community test centers still open until I went on the MN Department of Health's website. I called before I went and the operator was super helpful in explaining how it worked, and also mentioned the vaccine clinics. When I got there, there wasn't anyone there except the support clerk. She was really helpful and kind. We had great conversation. She explained how to set up the testing account and I was in and out in a few minutes. I even got my PCR test results back from the lab in less than 24 hours. Oh, and I even got two boxes of rapid tests! Generous. I will say though that I think the clerk should be provided with a respirator based on her job (KN95/N95). She was wearing a cloth mask which doesn't do much for an airborne virus like Covid, and especially since folks coming in for testing are mostly symptomatic and often Covid positive. She shouldn't have to buy her own respirator or be put in that risk. I didn't have any on hand or I would've given her some. I really appreciated that Phyllis Wheatley was there for me, caring for the community.”
“This is a great place. It has well priced clothing with shirts costing just 6$. Definitely coming back, I’m also considering checking out other thrift shops because of how awesome this place was!”

“I could go on and on about how much I love and appreciate Compassionate Action for Animals (and I often do!), but can sum up my feelings this way as well: CAA has forever changed the lives of so many animals and people for the better...including mine. If you want to be a part of a group that’s inclusive, empowering, compassionate, focuses on the positive, and effectively makes change for the most abused animals—farmed animals—but also impacts positive change for all animals...this is the group to join and support. Get involved and meet new people that share your compassionate views and choices, do good for animals, share tasty vegan food and learn to cook compassionate meals, and never worrying again about how (and with whom) you’ll spend your holidays and weekends. CAA hasn’t you covered: Memorial wknd farm sanctuary visit & picnic; 4th of July potluck; Thanksgiving potluck; and more. You just might find love (as I did!), and you’ll certainly find you’re in good company.p.s, Oops, once again I went on and on!?”
“Helped us to pick the best Medicare advantage program for us based on our medications and needs for specialized medical care. They also helped us compare our retiree plans at work with those plans available in Minnesota. FInally, helped us to ask good questions based on our needs. We called the office and set up an appointment to meet with a expert advisor. There is no cost for this and they gave us an excellent booklet of all the Medicare plans available in Minnesota. We’ve also called from time to time with specific questions - excellent help each time.”
