The Weekender: May 7 - 9

Happy weekend, and Happy Mother’s Day! We’ve got big plans to enjoy some time with family (now that we’re all finally fully vaccinated!) along with soaking up as much of this spring weather as we can. Here’s a few things that caught our eye:

Mother’s Day: Have you made plans? We rounded up a list of ideas from shops and businesses around Glens Falls that would make a perfect gift or experience (Mother’s Day brunch, anyone?!) - read it here!

Common Roots: If you haven’t heard (and even if you have, we’ll celebrate it here again!) - Common Roots has opened their beer garden and taproom for on-site dining! We’re so excited to enjoy a pint and a pizza in their new space after grabbing take-out over the past year. Get the details here - cheers!

The Arts: The Hyde Collection just reopened (with three new exhibitions we can’t wait to see!), and strolling The Chapman Museum’s new collection featuring Now & Then Photos of Glens Falls would make a fun afternoon, too!

 
 

Food Truck Fridays: A big hit last summer, Food Truck Fridays at the Washington County Fairgrounds are back starting tomorrow! Food trucks and entertainment abound from 4-8pm - details here!

Hicks in Bloom: We’ve been keeping an eye on photos of the apple tree blooms at Hicks in Granville and this weekend looks to be a pretty one! A ride out to the orchard for a donut, some cider, and a stroll through the trees sounds pretty sweet - details here!

Have a great weekend!
