Plus, we’re shining a spotlight on local State Farm agent Vince Ovecka, getting to know the person behind the business and his connection to the community.

From health and wellness to something sweet and the local businesses that help shape our neighborhood, this issue is the perfect way to wrap up another great summer in Fishtown.
