What do a mechanical bull, fresh fruits + veggies, beer, and a bouldering gym have in common?

They’re all things you’ll be able to find #ComingSoon at the newly redeveloped historic Judson Mill. The 35-acre site is located at 701 Easley Bridge Rd., roughly a ~15-20 minute walk from St. Francis Downtown or all that the Village of West Greenville has to offer.
