Miscellaneous
If you live in Winona, or even nearby, you've probably visited the cozy corner on Third Street that is Blooming Grounds Coffee House for a cup of joe — or perhaps you prefer its express location on Huff. The mind behind both operations is Amy Jo Marks, this week's guest on Inside Winona. Since opening Blooming Grounds downtown in 2003, and rehabbing it after a fire a decade later, she's cultivated a place to drink coffee and wine, share a slice of pizza or a treat from the bakery case, listen to local musicians and even hear your U.S. senator speak. We'd recommend sipping a spicy chai latte as you listen.
