It’s no secret that our little area is growing by leaps and bounds. And with growth comes valid concerns and challenges. How do we, as a region, address this growth and work together to make sure it happens in the right way? This question and the resulting report presented by the Northwest Arkansas Council was the subject of a recent video project we worked on. And today, we’re happy to share more of that information., along with the resulting video.

Since 2014, Akin's Natural Foods has been serving our community with carefully curated grocery items, fresh, organic produce and the largest selection of vitamins and supplements in the area. But Akin's history is much older than 2014. In fact, Akin's was established and has been operating in the neighboring city of Tulsa Oklahoma since 1935, long before the founders of Whole Foods were in diapers.
Aside from grocery items, produce and supplements, Akin's also offers many healthy grab 'n go options such as soups, a salad bar, fresh house-made sushi, sandwiches and smoothies. And Ramen lovers can rejoice as well, because they have that too! And best of all, the staff are friendly, helpful and approachable. In fact, you'll probably end up making some new friends like I did when I was there. As a Tulsa Oklahoma native, I am no stranger to this franchise and I am super excited to have one close by in Rogers. I'm even happier that I have the opportunity to work with them on a professional level.
For more information, visit Akin's Natural Foods online or drive there and experience it for your self.

Every year, the good folks at Linked In remind of my work anniversary. And every year, I am pleasantly surprised at how much time has gone by since I started this little photo + video company. What started in 2006 as a "next step" after leaving the confines of my corporate cubicle has become my full time job, my career and without a doubt, a huge part of my life. This year marks the 20th year of Novo Studio.
And so this year, we celebrate.
All year.
Cheers.

I’m sure we’ll do all this again in September. In the meantime, stay healthy, stay cool and stay awesome.
Cheers.
