LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

How are you choosing to embrace the beginning days of June?

This year, I’m starting with a day trip to a local lavender farm. On p. 14, assistant editor Emily Standlee shares a few drivable options from the metro area and interviews one of the owners of Tenderloin Farms Lavender about everything you didn’t know about growing the popular crop.

On a week I am feeling a bit more adventurous, I plan to check out Bumbershoot Aerial Arts for lessons in aerial acrobatics Associate editor Charlotte Renner takes us behind the scenes of this physical, creative and therapeutic outlet on p. 19.

Feeling even more energized after that airborne exercise? Perhaps it’s time to tackle a dreamy home renovation project. Managing editor Ashley Klein explores the wonderfully chic and Euro-inspired Stone Hall Cabinetry on p. 35, which recently set up shop in the former Ladue Market.

From ways to commemorate Juneteenth (p. 60) to an inside look at the newly renovated Boathouse at Forest Park (p. 22), this edition has so many ways for you to plan your best summer yet.

Happy reading,
