Hit the road — 10/10/2024

Time to hit the road! In this week’s cover story we look at self-guided art and crafts tours, an upcoming vineyard tour and different ways to see some historical sites. We’re talking extremely local road trips, just in time for your (hopefully) long weekend — but short enough that you can enjoy them in an afternoon.

Also on the cover, It’s the annual Milford Pumpkin Festival (see page 6) and the annual Warner Fall Foliage Festival (see page 17). And next weekend enjoy a relatively recent annual celebration — the Mount Uncanoonuc Brewfest (page 22).

Fall Guide 2024 — 9/05/2024

It’s fall! Well, maybe not officially but you know what we mean — back to school, pumpkin spice, mornings that might require a sweater. And, events! So many fall events that we present to you this year, as we do every year, our guide to fall arts and entertainment, including fairs, arts festivals, theatrical productions and a comic convention featuring a screening of 1990’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Find info on these events and so much more in the guide, which starts on page 10.

Also on the cover One of those fall events is the Hillsborough County Agricultural Fair, which runs this weekend (see page 32). Another annual tradition is the Hampton Beach Seafood Festival (page 37), also this weekend. And after all that excitement, maybe you need to relax with a nice pot pie (see page 36).
