Meet our raptors — 23/08/24

It’s a lovely time of year for bird watching — particularly for watching raptors, such as owls, hawks and falcons. Mya Blanchard talks to local experts about some of the birds of prey you may spot and what they look like. Photo at right is of a Peregrine falcon, photo by Al Hospers. Photo of bald eagles on the cover is by Joe Grande.

Also on the cover Mya Blanchard catches up with chef Keith Sarasin about his book Mastering Fermentation. John Fladd gives you an easy but impressive flourless chocolate cake. Michael Witthaus talks to Liam Spain about the NH Irish Festival.

The after school issue — 23/08/17

Back! To! School! While parents may be more excited about this season than their kids, kids likely will get excited about suiting up for ballet or soccer or karate.

If you’re looking for a place for your kids to find new interests or build on their existing skills, check out this week’s extracurriculars spectacular!

Also on the cover Meanwhile, the summer festivals continue. This weekend, Manchester is home to two of its tasty annual events: Mahrajan, a festival of Middle Eastern food, and We Are One, celebrating African, Caribbean and Latin American cultures.

Michael Witthaus catches up with comedians and show organizers to help you find out where to go to have a laugh. Photo above and on the cover is of comedian Kerri Louise; photo by Karl Baierlein.

Also on the cover Fests all over! Leave your Saturday meal plans to the Great New England BBQ & Food Truck Fest in Milford (see page 24).

NH Mushrooms — 07/08/03

Mushrooms are having a moment — specifically foraging for fungi. With an expert. Who will keep you from picking the wrong (i.e. toxic, possibly fatally so) mushroom. Which is why we are NOT recommending you take this week’s issue into the woods to pick dinner. But we are offering this look at foraging for mushrooms, cooking with mushrooms (with recipes and a list of where to buy mushrooms if you’d rather not be the one doing the picking) and even making art with mushrooms. Cover photo is of chanterelles by Christine Gagnon.

Also on the cover Fun is on the schedule at Vernon Family Farms (page 24). Find music on restaurant and brewery decks, patios, indoor stages and more in the Music This Week (page 32). And Michael Witthaus looks at the Barefoot Music & Arts Festival.
