Nina and Arrow moved to Brattleboro together in April 2023 from Albany, NY. They met online and bring a blend of backgrounds to their new home, with Arrow originally from Louisiana and Nina from Colorado.

The couple quickly found favorite spots in town, such as Mocha Joe’s for coffee and the Putney Diner for breakfast. They also enjoy browsing Everyone’s Books (“raising hell since 1984”), one of their favorite local stores.

Newly engaged, they are excited to tie the knot in the fall of 2025 at the beautifully renovated Retreat Farm barn
