Happy weekend, and Happy October! Settling into all things cozy as the temps dip again, and we have big plans for comfort food, apple pie, and finally getting mums and pumpkins this weekend. And maybe our first fire of the season? Here’s what else looks good:
Exhibit Opening: LARAC is opening their annual Juried Art Exhibit, “This is America”, tomorrow from 5-7pm and it’s so nice to see things like this on the calendar again! Bonus - they’ll have live music (weather permitting) outdoors! Details here.
Open Studio: Speaking of art, one of our favorite local artists, Mark Tougias, is having an open studio (and yard!), this weekend (Sat 11-4 and Sun 1-4pm). He’s located at 29 North Park Street in Cambridge, and if you go, be sure to check out some of our favorite things to do in town here.
Farm to Fiber Tour: We love all of the tour style events in our area and were thrilled to stumble across this one! 30 farms, fiber studios, makers, and a mill are participating across an eight-county region in upstate NY and VT and it sounds like the perfect way to do some leaf peeping and enjoy some tours, demonstrations and shopping, too! Details here.
Ellms Family Farm: Fun to see some Halloween events popping up and love that this one makes it easy to social distance! The Pumpkin Glow and Light Show Drive Thru starts this weekend at Ellms Farm in Ballston Spa and runs through November 8th - grab your tickets here!
Hiking: Foliage came fast this year, and it’s at peak or near peak throughout Warren County and the Adirondacks. Tom and I were hoping to hike in the Lake Placid area last weekend, but parking was absolutely crazy at the popular trailheads. Here are a few lesser known - but still beautiful - hikes to try this weekend if you’d like to get out and enjoy the foliage without a crowd (but definitely have a Plan B just in case!!).
Have a great weekend!
