Had such a fun time apple picking this weekend at Had such a fun time apple picking this weekend at Drew Farm in Westford, MA! There’s not a lot of bells and whistles so you won’t find as many crowds here, but you will find everything you need for a memorable fall outing: 
✔️ dog and kid friendly 
✔️ beautiful setting 
✔️ tons of apple varieties 
✔️ yummy apple cider donuts 
✔️ cozy bonfire and s’mores kits
✔️ your pick of pumpkins 
✔️ only 45 min from Boston 
Add this one to your fall bucket list - especially for Halloween, when they plan on lining their paths with hundreds of lit Jack o Lanterns 🎃

The weather in New England may not have gotten the The weather in New England may not have gotten the memo, but it’s officially summer! ☀️ 
Last summer, I dragged my family to Sugar Hill, NH to see lupines because it had been on my bucket list for FOREVER. It did not disappoint - this picturesque small town is considered the lupine capital of New England, and the purple and pink blooms dot the fields as far as your eye can see. 
What’s on your New England bucket list this summer?
