Editors Le er

It is with immense pride and gratitude that I present the 12th edition of The Scout Guide Fort Worth—a curated celebration of the people, places, and businesses that make this city such a remarkable place to live, visit, and grow.

Ea ch year, as a new edition comes to life, I am reminded of the magic that happens when powerful storytelling meets extraordinary local talent. Through high-impact photography and intentional, heartfelt narratives, this guide continues to serve as a love letter to Fort Worth and the inspiring individuals who pour their passion into building it.

I’m honor ed to bring this edition to you alongside the incredibly talented Jason Kindig, whose artistry behind the lens helps capture the true essence of our community. Together, we’ve created a volume that’s full of inspiring stories— each one a reflection of the heart, hustle, and soul that define Fort Worth.

This city is one-of-a-kind. It’s where art and entrepreneurship thrive side by side; where Western heritage meets modern spirit; and where vibrant neighborhoods, wellness-minded lifestyles, and a strong sense of community converge in the most beautiful ways.

To the busi ness owners featured in these pages: You have reshaped the way I see Fort Worth. You’ve shown me what’s possible when creativity, courage, and commitment come together. Your stories are not only moving—they’re motivating. You are the heartbeat of this guide and this city.

And to our readers: Thank you for championing the live local movement. Your loyalty and enthusiasm are what fuel these businesses and help our community flourish. Please keep shopping small, supporting local, and celebrating the incredible people behind each business showcased in this edition.

With dee p gratitude for this journey and the many hands and hearts who helped bring it to life—thank you.

Warm ly,

Leigh Brown
