Ferndale schools

Wife and I plus our 3 year old are ready to move closer back home in Oakland county where we are from. I grew up in Troy and would like to suck it up and move there for the schools, my wife really likes ferndale and I do too especially for the cost of a home, but I am concerned about the school district. I was a 2012 grad and I remember visiting ferndale for sports all through high school and it felt pretty ghetto to me, the city looks like it’s changed a lot , but how are the schools really? Please people with kids in schools reply only

I Need Help to get out of a Toxic Situation

I’m in a bad situation and need to move to Ferndale with my cat and my dog. But I live on SSI which doesn’t afford me any apartment in a normal situation. I also have a Bridge Food Card which helps. What should I do?

Reminder: Harvest Festival on Livernois this Saturday 10/3

Harvest Festival on Livernois

Saturday, October 3, 2026
Noon – 9:00 PM
Livernois Avenue between Fielding & Marshfield

Celebrate the Harvest. Celebrate Community.

There’s something special about autumn in Michigan—the crisp air, changing leaves, live music, fresh cider, and neighbors coming together.

That’s the spirit behind Harvest Festival on Livernois.

Now celebrating its 5th year, Harvest Festival transforms a block of Livernois into a celebration of everything we love about the season, bringing together local artists, makers, musicians, farmers, restaurants, small businesses, and community organizations for one unforgettable fall day.

Spend the afternoon exploring handmade goods, enjoying live music and great food, decorating pumpkins with the kids, visiting local businesses, and celebrating the people who make our community special.

What You’ll Find

🍂 60+ local artists, makers, vintage curators, authors, herbalists & small businesses

🌾 Farmers market & seasonal harvest offerings

🎶 Live music & entertainment throughout the day

🎃 The Great Pumpkin Giveaway

🎨 Family activities & pumpkin decorating

🍎 Local food, baked goods, coffee, cider & seasonal treats

🧡 Plenty of autumn magic

More Than a Festival

Harvest Festival began with a simple idea: bring people together.

Every artist, musician, business, nonprofit, volunteer, sponsor, and community partner helps turn Livernois into a place where neighbors gather, kids make memories, and local creators and businesses are celebrated.

When you join us, you’re not just attending a festival—you’re supporting local artists and businesses while helping a neighborhood tradition continue to grow.

Live Music & Entertainment

Enjoy live performances throughout the day from local musicians and entertainers—the perfect soundtrack for an autumn afternoon on Livernois.

Food & Seasonal Favorites

Come hungry! Local restaurants, food vendors, coffee, baked goods, cider, and seasonal treats will be available throughout the festival.

Join Us

Whether it’s your first Harvest Festival or you’ve been with us since the beginning, come spend the day celebrating autumn, creativity, and community.

Bring your family. Bring your friends. Bring your love of fall.

We’ll see you on Livernois. 🍂

Platonic Wing woman needed

I'm looking to find a fun loving woman who is accepting and can be supportive of a crossdresser (closeted) who deeply wishes to experience it publicly in a supportive environment, (Wing woman if you will) This is purely for fun, adventure and even a bit thrilling, I just don't want to explore alone. This is not something that's supported in my day to day. Shopping, local spots, LBGTQ bar or club or event...... Perhaps we could grab a quick coffee prior. I have some open private time coming up mid October that I'm hoping to plan for. Happy to share any information about me or any additional details. I'm a safe, fun, respectful man in his 60's.

Where to meet new friends or singles?

I’m a 34 year old bisexual man. Im trying to meet more people as friends or dates (pretty open). I’m currently in grad school and work FT so I don’t have a ton of time but I’m looking for activities that are more drop in oriented and socially friendly. I’m athletic, enjoy reading, and movies. I’m pretty open for activities and don’t mind learning something new but I was curious if anyone had any suggestions for communities or activities in the metro Detroit area?
