We believe it’s never too early to start thinking about spring here on the cape. Especially since it has been feeling on average more like April than January!

There is a fantastic event ‘brewing’ for the end of April so we wanted to be sure you all mark your calendars in anticipation. On Saturday, April 28 Falmouth Academy will be hosting their Mariner Craft Beer tasting! This will be a great social event that will feature nautical themed craft beers from various brewers, as well as lots of complementary and delicious foods from local Cape Cod restaurants. Come and sample your favorite beers and learn more about how these delicious brews are made!

There will be live music and silent auction items and other exciting activities to help make this a truly enjoyable evening. Additional details to follow regarding participating brewers and restaurants, along with ticket availability and accommodations.  Stay tuned for updates!

What a day we had this past Saturday at the Wellfleet Oyster Festival, a great place to spend an afternoon with friends and family; especially on a day as gorgeous as this one was! This annual event and Cape Cod tradition held in ‘downtown’ Wellfleet, offered a tantalizing menu for all of the senses: food; music; shopping; people watching and exciting educational events.

This was the 11th annual festival celebrating Wellfleet’s famous oysters and its deep rooted shell fishing traditions. SPAT Shellfish Promotion and Tasting, a non profit organization devoted to nurturing a better understanding of the town’s shell fishing traditions, along with a multitude of volunteers works hard to present this event each year…and what a success! In keeping with the important focus on recycling here on the Cape, the festival is always very conscientious about collecting all shells:  oysters, clams, etc and returning them to the bay in order to keep the oyster reefs thriving. There were special recycling buckets placed all around the festival grounds to encourage everyone to do their part. (more…)
