Here we are, smack-dab in the middle of August, and rather than pondering, "How did this happen?" Let's revel in it! Warren County hosts three major events worth special mention this weekend: an Antiques Show & Vintage Marketplace; Vintage North Jersey's Wine & Food Festival; and Blues & Craft Brews. There's a solar eclipse coming up; a quoit tournament; and, as usual, plenty of venues - indoors and out - are hosting live music.
Tickets are still available for the Foodshed Alliance's annual Farm-to-Fork dinner being held at Alba Vineyard next weekend, and more! Happy Wanderings, and through it all, remember to stop and smell the flowers! (Photo above courtesty of Marshall's Farm Market's Facebook page.)
