    Agate & Herb
    We recently drove out to East Grand Rapids and discovered an amazing shop that we'd like to share with you! Agate & Herb, located on Wealthy Street, offers a collection of curated and handmade goods that make wonderful gifts for your loved ones or even for yourself. During our visit, we had the pleasure of meeting the owner, BreAnna, who was very insightful and welcoming. We were blown away by the beauty of the handmade Polish pottery and the exquisite jewelry. As a graduate gemologist, BreAnna was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with all of the pieces. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, we highly recommend checking out Agate & Herb for the perfect gift.

    I love to feel the warmth of spring approaching as many others that live in Michigan do! While strolling through East Grand Rapids the other day, it was wonderful to see so many people outdoors. In this quaint city, at the slightest bit of a decent temperature... there are many outside and enjoying the weather. Dogs being walked, kids playing frisbee in the park, babies in strollers, and smiles/"hello's" are what you'll see and hear around this neighborhood.

    East Grand Rapids was once home to President Gerald R. Ford and carries much charm. Well-known Reeds Lake is the center of attention for the city, and as summer approaches, it will house many sailboats, water skiers, fishing boats and swimming. You'll see picnics around the lake and those enjoying the several mile long walking trail around the area as well. What a gem!
  • East Grand Rapids, home of former President Gerald R. Ford, is conveniently located in Kent County, close to all of the beauty that West Michigan has to offer. A small mecca of a historical city, that has the benefits of large city living yet the ambiance of a small town, is East Grand Rapids. So one has to ask, where else would anyone want to live?

    The location of East Grand Rapids speaks for itself. It is located near easy access to thruways, airports, businesses, schools, churches, holiday getaways, other cities, sporting events, cultural and art exhibits and a vibrant and growing downtown Grand Rapids.

    East Grand Rapids is very family-oriented and friendly. This is evidenced by the many educational, cultural and individual and team sporting activities, events and opportunities offered by an aggressive Parks and Recreation Department. The city boasts street parades and festivals, holiday park events and competitions. Restaurants and shopping abound in quaint Gaslight Village and charming Eastown.

    This community features state of the art award-winning schools for excellence in education and sports. Residents benefit from hospitals, library, yacht club, historic sites, government services, beautifully landscaped homes, apartment, condo and household living, safety, and police and fire protection. This all comprises a major part of what makes East Grand Rapids the place to live.

    Last, but certainly not least, the scenery in East Grand Rapids is beautiful. Trees engulf the city, along with trails, parks, small lakes and streams, and lush Reeds Lake, open to residents who wish to boat, sail, race, swim, fish, ice skate, sail and play hockey in the winter.

    Reeds Lake - More Than Just a Lake
    The charming community of East Grand Rapids is known for many things...the home town of former President Gerald Ford, an outstanding school system both in academics and athletics,
    and Reeds Lake. The community has so much to offer someone who enjoys community events, walking/biking trails and water fun!

    Visit Collins Park, home to many summer events....family picnics, relaxing by the water edge of
    Reeds Lake, seeing the sail boat races from the GRYC (Grand Rapids Yacht Club), shore fishing and summer celebrations of endless kinds. Not to be missed are the trails around EGR and Reeds Lake as well as the nature preserve areas recently added along the Reeds Lake shore line to increase the awareness and beauty of birds, fish and wildlife.

    Come for the afternoon....enjoying a nice stroll along Reeds Lake and visit Jersey Junction. Come for dinner and dine on the water's edge at famous Rose's (steeped in local history), then walk to Starbucks for a "mocha" on the patio. One thing is for sure...you will be part of an active, diverse community that loves the outdoors, charming village amenities and those EGR Pioneer teams!

    A must see when visiting Grand Rapids! Often one of the top area picks for someone moving into the Grand Rapids area. Enjoy and explore...
