Happy World Music Day! 🎶

Also known as Fête de la Musique or Make Music Day, the mission of this 40-year-old global celebration is to bring music to everyone, everywhere through free, open-air concerts and performances.

Music is an essential part of the EDENS experience in most of our places, where artists in our communities are invited to create unforgettable moments of connection.

“Freshfields Village is beloved by this community and is a valuable addition to our portfolio as we continue to expand our presence in the Southeast,” said Herbert Ames, Senior Vice President and Regional Leader, EDENS. “We are honored for the opportunity to steward this very special destination that is treasured by all who enjoy South Carolina’s Lowcountry.”

That’s a wrap! Thank you to everyone who came out in support of Sunday Supper this weekend in DC—especially to our incredible team of culinary all-stars.

Applications are now open for the 2022 (fall) and 2023 (winter) cohorts for the Women’s Entrepreneurial Leadership program. The deadline is coming up fast on June 23, so if you are someone looking to expand your restaurant or food business, or someone you know (anywhere in the U.S.), please visit https://www.jamesbeard.org/womens-entrepreneurial-leadership-program for more information and the online application.

Strong, empowered and diverse leadership is what leads to policy change, which is why we launched WEL seven years ago in partnership with James Beard Foundation. As a result, the culinary industry is headed toward a more equitable place.

“By far the greatest thing I’ve gotten from the program has been the relationships I’ve built. I now have a cadre of strong women I can go to for advice and support, which is something I had none of before WEL.” – WEL graduate.

EDENS celebrates farmers markets that complete the authentic experience of our places. As vital community members, we salute you!

Beginning this weekend, on Sunday, June 5, Milk Lady Markets will host a weekly farmers market at Cabin John Village in Potomac, MD. Sustainably grown produce and responsibly raised meat and dairy products will be on offer 9 am – 1 pm, in addition to artisanal crafts and live music.

Every first and third Sunday, 11 am and 3 pm, Your Neighborhood Farmer’s Market Association (YNFMA) hosts a bi-monthly farmers market at Uptown Park in Houston. YNFMA is the largest certified farmers market in Texas, featuring fresh, healthy food from local farmers, producers, crafters and artisans.

Mosaic District’s farmers market on Sunday mornings is at the heart of this community in Fairfax, VA, running year-round from 9 am – 2 pm, with a second weekly event on Thursday evenings from 3 pm-7pm (through October).

South End Market at Atherton, in Charlotte, operates year-round, in support of farmers and producers offering local, sustainable and responsibly raised produce and proteins, as well as locally sourced artisanal food products and crafts. Saturdays, 8 am-1 pm.

Today is World Play Day!

Human engagement is most authentic when we are fully present for each other. When we truly live in the moment, routine transactions become meaningful interactions. Lack of routine connection is more harmful to our health than smoking a pack of cigarettes a day.

World Play Day is an unofficial holiday sponsored by the International Toy Library Association to recognize the numerous physical, emotional and intellectual benefits of intentional play—in any setting, at any age.

For us, play translates as memorable moments created through shared experiences, and we invite this type of deeper connection in our places.

What's on your playlist for today?

Another great @icsc #icscrecon in the books! Thank you to everyone who joined us in Vegas this year, especially our retail partners—the lifeblood of our communities.

Shout-out to our Mid-Atlantic leasing team for announcing 10 new partners in Union Market District, a merchant roster that represents a curated mix of homegrown businesses, global brands and culinary stars that will occupy more than 34,000 square feet of storefront in this historic northeast D.C. neighborhood.

A prime example of our placemaking approach to well-balanced retail ecosystems and authentic, meaningful experiences.

Building a future that lasts for generations. #7WordStories

The buildings and constructions sectors of our economy account for 39% of energy and process-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. EDENS has been addressing risks caused by climate change since 2008, when we established an EDENS Sustainability Task Force. Today we are carbon neutral in the space we control through our entire portfolio of more than 100 places, but we believe there is much more to do.

As stewards of our communities and leaders of our industry, we are helping to ensure the future. Our efforts today promise more benefits than what we currently see. Together, we harness a collective desire for prosperity well beyond our time.
