Wearing rain jackets and carrying umbrellas, a steady stream of people lined up to get a frozen custard treat from Goodies Frozen Custard & Treats storefront in Alexandria on opening weekend.
Goodies' "almost semi-grand opening" on Memorial Day weekend didn't have summery weather that screams for frozen treats, but the community flocked to support the new storefront located inside a historic icehouse.
The opening had been a long time coming: Byrd dreamed of his future storefront for years as he delivered custard to the DMV from Gigi, his old-school food truck. Then, the pandemic hit.

'Stars aligned': Collaborative business Mosh Posh Marketplace opens in Nevada City | TheUnion.com
Mosh Posh Marketplace officially opened Sunday, bringing what owner Shannon Byrd described as a vessel for business creativity to downtown Nevada City.
Lastly, for a total of seven businesses involved in what Byrd described as a "mosh posh of businesses," is I M Element, which offers specialty bath and body products.
Byrd last year started Mason Jar Meals To Go, which offers grab-and-go or delivery for meals, salads, and desserts all in Mason jars, an idea which was sparked after she began using Mason jars in her own meal prepping. She soon realized the method worked well for freezing food and planning out precise portions — both of which she says virtually eliminated her food waste.
A Black-Owned Plant Shop Blooms In The Pandemic's Wake | The ARTery
If someone told Quontay Turner that she'd be opening her first storefront in the middle of a pandemic, she would've laughed. "I wouldn't have guessed in a million years that I'd be opening a store and an event space," she said. "So many businesses were closing! It's crazy right?"
But Turner took the leap anyway. She opened Emerald City Plant Shop in Norwood — New England's first Black woman-owned plant store — a little over one month ago. Since then, her business has blossomed. "We've had so much support since we started," said Turner. "It's just wild to think that in 2020, the shop was only virtual."
