I would get tubs of incredibly hot salsa at the farmers market every week over the summer and fall but now that the farmers market is closed for the season I don't know where to fuel my capsicum addiction outside of going to Indian restaurants. The salsa at the various chain grocery stores I've tried has never been sufficient no matter how "spicy" it claims to be. Either that or it is bitter and flavorlacking. If any other capsicum junkies know where a good salsa is I would much appreciate it :3

I'm buying a house and wanting to get ahead on organizing lawn care for next year.

I need someone to help with aeration/overseeding/fertilization and then potentially weekly mowing depending on the cost.

Who do you all recommend for a quality low cost provider?

Does anybody know where I can get currant (red or black, but preferably red) currant jelly? I need some for my favorite cookies, but I'm not sure where in town or nearby to find them.

Thanks!

We have a small farm NE Longmont and I was wondering if there was any other farmers here in the area I could connect to. I have some questions I wanted to ask about herd sharing.

Super loud drums like a parade with police blocking roads? Wtf is happening lol

Hey y'all!

I just recently joined up with a couple ladies who are looking to start a casual band. Right now, we've got a vocalist, bass, and guitar. We're looking for drums, rhythm guitar, and potentially keys and/or back-up vocals. We're working on a few songs by The Cranberries, Bikini Kill, and the Breeders. Definitely influenced by the riot grrrl era! Not women-exclusive, anyone is welcome, but that is the value base we're coming from. Message me if you're interested!

I am in the process of cleaning out my parents' basement. They have a number of sleeping bags - older, but clean. I would like to donate them to a place where they would get to unhoused people who need them. I have found one regional charity that accepts sleeping bags, but the drop-off is in downtown Denver. Does anyone here know of local or closer groups that accept sleeping bags?

I’m in the market for a new furnace after our 39 year old furnace is no longer working. (Separate subject) I’ve been working with m and m cooling in town and I’ve opted to go with the cheapest budget option replacement gas furnace. They’ve quoted me $5800 single stage Lennox unit. My tenants live in an 1800 sq ft unit. I thought it was reasonable until I noticed some these units sell online for $2000. Feels like the quote at this point is absolute insanity. Perhaps I’m missing something though or others have experience. Any advice would be appreciated!

I’m concerned they know that my tenants are w/o heat and pushing to install this unit quickly at a higher cost.

We've been going to Cat's Meow for a couple years now, but her prices have grown outside of what we'd like to be paying. Anybody have recommendations? Thanks!

Does anyone remember the store that existed before Save-A-Lot on north main? I know it was Albertson's way back when I was a kid, but there was a different one once Albertson's closed down. My mom doesn't believe me, and I don't blame her because it was open for maybe less than a year.

Did anyone else get this email from NextLight? With a reference to "you might need to pay more" in the email? I thought the rate is fixed? Is this some new work around that? Force you to upgrade hardware and thus pay more per month?

Hey Longmont, I’ve moved here about 2 years ago from Denver and I’ve made 0 local friends. I find myself always driving back and forth to Denver for any kind of socialization. Looking for maybe bars where the atmosphere is conducive to chatting with strangers, maybe like a fun karaoke night type situation? Also looking for other work from home folks who enjoy working from a third place sometimes. I hate an office setting but sometimes I just want to work next to someone, and not feel so isolated. I’m 36, queer, and looking for friendship not romance.

Happy Wednesday my longmonster crew!

Hi all, I'd love to hear people's experiences of Pre-K programs in this school district, specifically how things worked out using the universal Pre-K. How much did you end up spending if you also used wraparound care til mid afternoon? How was the quality of the care outside of that 2 hour "school day" window? How much outdoor unstructured play did your kid get? We are in a totally wonderful but very difficult to afford preschool right now, and I'm trying to wrap my head around the benefits and draw acks of making the switch in the coming year.

Me and my friend were walking from the park and going on 17th avenue when we saw this appeared to be goth woman in a strange dress taking pictures of a cardboard box next to the power box on the road(the one kind of close to the traffic light) has anybody here seen somebody similar to this? i tried looking this up and couldn’t find anything, and my friend and i were very confused, they didn’t say anything, was this just somebody messing around or is this something else? this isn’t a shitpost i’m genuinely confused on who and what this was, has anybody seen somebody like this before on 17th avenue? (if you don’t know where that is, its near marcos hotdogs) please somebody help me figure out if they’re have been other sightings of this person. I’m not filing or speaking about missing people i’m just trying to figure out if anybody has seen this person near or at 17th avenue. If it’s nothing special let me know, Sorry if i made this under the missing person rule(not trying to find missing person again) but i’m genuinely curious on who this is. I haven’t contacted anybody and they showed no sign of aggression when i was near them. No pictures of this person was captured but they were on 17th avenue, next time you drive by 17th avenue near about 5-6 pm when this occurred or at later or earlier times and see anything strange please let me know. I have been in Longmont for over 3 years and i haven’t seen anybody much like this before. Am i finding something weird or am i just overthinking? Please help!

Why were there so many cops I counted nearly 30 cop vehicles across multiple roads and times what was the situation it’s getting scary how many there are

I'm a part owner in a family farm here. There is an ongoing dispute with the gas company as they put their line outside of their easement, and we're trying to get this settled. I feel like this is an hour or two discussion, but I need some legal advice. Is this a job for a real estate lawyer? Business lawyer? General purpose? I'm a little lost here, thanks.

I was just wondering if there is a thread on reddit where you can post or view local stuff listed for sale in Longmont area?

New to the area. I have an Australian Shepherd and a cat. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Hoping a Fellow Longmonster might be able to help me out!

I’m a new Magic: The Gathering player who recently got into the game with a group of friends, and we’ve been loving our casual game nights. We’re all still pretty fresh to the game, and part of the fun has been experimenting with different cards and strategies as we learn. However, we’ve run into a challenge that I’m sure some of you longtime players might understand.

Finding cards as a new player has been pretty rough! It seems like a lot of bulk card listings are just piles of commons that have been picked clean of anything remotely interesting. Or seemingly people trying to take advantage of newer players by overpricing basic cards or pulling all the good ones.

That’s why I’m reaching out here. I'm hoping someone has got an old collection gathering dust and want it to go to a group of new players who will truly play with and enjoy the cards—not flip them for profit. We’re not looking for pristine rares or anything fancy, just a solid mix of cards to keep the fun going as we explore the game.

If you’re looking to part with a collection and want it to go to a good home where it’ll actually get played, please DM me. We’d love to work out a fair price and make your cards part of our MTG journey.

I was driving home last night just before 10pm and came across about 10 police cars while they were launching a drone. This was around County Line and 15 (near the RR tracks) so it wasn't in town, but I'd love to know what happened.
