We are a fun and friendly neighborhood farmers market, located at 3467 East Orange Road, Lewis Center OH, between Orange High and Middle Schools and Freedom Trail Elementary, in the Orange Friends Church parking lot. We're here each Tuesday beginning June 30 through August 11, from 4:30 to 7:30 pm. Come get your weekly supply of fresh vegtables, bread and other prepared treats, and browse our craft vendors' variety of original products. Bring the kids - they have their own area with outdoor toys, a bounce house and supervised crafts! And it's dinner time - there's a different food truck each week, so don't cook tonight - you can eat at one of our picnic tables. All this, and music too! Don't miss it!

Adult Writers’ Studio is a welcoming and creative community of writers 18+ who gather to share and discuss their writing, participate in generative exercises, provide/receive feedback about each other’s work, engage in topical discussions, and support each other through peer motivation and kind, constructive criticism. Led by writer and facilitator Diane Callahan, Adult Writers’ Studio: Elevate Your Writing meets in-person every other Tuesday at Thurber Center.

Experience Blooms & Butterflies in the Pacific Island Water Garden, where hundreds of exotic butterflies glide through bright nectar flowers. As you wander the garden, you’ll see butterflies feeding, resting, and gliding through the air in an ever-changing display of color and movement. Don’t miss the Metamorphosis Lab, where you can watch butterflies take their very first flight as they emerge from their chrysalises throughout the day.

All aboard! The Paul Busse Garden Railway is arriving at Conservatory station.

9 G scale model trains travel across 1,122 feet of track that runs high and low through themed destinations: Fairytale Land, Wild West Town, European Travels and the animal-centric Who Lives Here.

Guests can journey with the trains through a miniature world of 51 botanical models made from all-natural plant material. Special elements to add to your itinerary include an enchanted tree hollow, two waterfalls, a bubbling brook and plantings specific to each themed destination.

Paul Busse Garden Railway opens April 25, 2026.

Some of the coolest riders and sharpest bikes in the city roll into Our Haus on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays from April through September — and we love hosting the crew.

Ride in, hang out, and enjoy the energy of Euro Bike Night.

*Weather permitting.

Best way to have fun while making new friends. Whether you've never done improv before or you're a seasoned veteran, come on out and play some games with us at Gresso's!

The idea behind improv is to create entire comedy scenes from scratch, similar to Whose Line Is It Anyway. In addition to being a lot of fun, it also offers lessons in everything from communication to thinking on your feet.

The meetup will be either on the second floor or Gresso's or in the basement (we'll post an update shortly before the start of each meetup). Stay afterward for a drink and/or some food with people!
