Do you like puzzles? Be in one at an area corn maze — a fun attraction at several local farms and orchards. We look at some of the spots where you get even more entertainment with your apples, pumpkins and cider doughnuts.

Also on the cover It’s an events-packed weekend! You’ve got your NH Highland Games (see page 24), your Granite State Comicon (page 18) and your Concord Multicultural Festival (page 25).

But, wait there’s more! Aerospacefest (page 19), a Brewfest in Manchester (page 25), Senie Hunt doing the rounds on a trip back to NH from Nashville (page 32). So much music (page 33)! So much family fun (page 18)! So much arts (page 14)!
