💭 What could The Milk District look like tomorrow? Let’s imagine it together. 💡
The Milk District’s 5th Annual Design Charrette returns August 27–September 1, bringing together 40+ UCF Architecture students alongside planners, artists, architects, community stakeholders, and creative thinkers to explore what’s possible for our neighborhood.

📝We’ll kick things off at the Orlando Executive Airport Community Room, then spend the days that follow collaborating, brainstorming, sketching, and developing bold ideas before gathering for final presentations at The Plaza Live.

🎨You want to be involved?? We're looking for ideas that challenge assumptions, spark conversations, reimagine public spaces, streetscapes, connectivity, and placemaking. The goal... to plant the seeds for something that can become very real. 🌿🌻
For five years, this process has given us the opportunity to look at The Milk District with fresh eyes and ask a simple question: What if?

We believe the best ideas for our neighborhood happen when we bring people together to dream big. Come JOIN US! 🤩

📣BIG NEWS 🏆
The Milk District and T.G. Lee Dairy were selected as recipients of the 2026 Secretary of State's Florida Main Street Award for "Celebrating Main Street" and have received national press coverage in USA Today!

The award was for The Milk Run and Mooovelous Milky Way that took place in May 2025. What began as a celebration of T.G. Lee's 100th anniversary grew into a community-wide event that welcomed more than 900 runners, activated 25 local businesses, and generated a $25,000 donation to Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida.

We are proud to receive this statewide recognition and thank every business, sponsor, volunteer, participant, and partner who contributed to its success.

​On July 23rd, we had an out-of-this-world experience at Kennedy Space Center​ to accept the award. ​Thanks to Florida Main Street and Historic Cocoa Village Main Street for organizing this unforgettable experience. We are Over The Mooooon! 🐮🌝🚀✨

📣 Here’s a story we couldn’t wait to share‼️
Sometimes the best neighborhood news isn’t about a new business; it’s about neighbors helping neighbors.

We talk a lot about supporting local businesses...This is what that actually looks like!

When Easy Luck Coffee & Bodega found themselves looking for a new home, another neighboring business stepped up and said, “Come on in!”.

We’re so excited to welcome Easy Luck Coffee & Bodega to the MilkStacks, where they’ll be serving up specialty coffee and breakfast alongside our friends at Phat Ash Bakes, beginning August 10th!!

We REALLY love this story, not just because we still get to keep our beloved Easy Luck in the District, but because it reminds us why we do what we do. Our businesses aren’t just neighbors... they’re a community. They celebrate each other’s wins, lend a hand when it’s needed, and understand that when one business succeeds, it makes the whole district stronger.

Congratulations to Easy Luck on their new home, and thank you to Phat Ash Bakes for once again showing what it means to support local and build community.

That’s the kind of place we’re proud to help build.
This is why Main Streets matter. 🤝

We’ll see you at the MilkStacks on August 10. 🥛☕🍪🐮
