It is the first full week of Fall! Weekly Events are ramping up and I have scouted out all of the fun seasonal (and not so seasonal) events happening this week. Riverfest is happening over in New Milford. Bethel is hosting a Fall Festival at Hollandia Nursery. Another fun festival is happening at Earthplace in Westport. Have an American Girl fan? There is a live action play happening this weekend with all your favorite characters!

Don’t miss apple picking! Check out all the apple picking spots in the area here: All the You Pick Farms in Northern Fairfield County and Beyond. And don’t forget to call them for a daily update before you go!
