“Nature does not hurry yet everything is accomplished.” - Lao Tzu

We’re happy to report that the weather - and the calendar - are heating up! Thanks to Donaldson Farms for the charming cover photo that captures the beauty this time of year brings.

Celebrate Mother Earth this weekend! There is a festival at the Phillipsburg Open Air Market, Belvidere’s Seed Trail, a town-wide party for the 37th Go Green with Hope Green Fair, and a hike along the Paulinskill Valley Trail!  Washington Borough will be jammin’ with its 5th Annual Steampunk Rock & Roll Fair.

For our local library lovers, we are pleased to announce the Grand Reopening of the Catherine Dickson Hofman branch (Blairstown) in a couple of weeks. With live music, refreshments and materials ready for checkout, it's sure to be a great day!

We honor moms with their own unique page of activities for Mother's Day.

If you haven’t already, there is still time to sign up for shares of fresh, local produce through a Community Supported Agriculture program.

Read on for more! Please note this issue takes us through mid-May, so if you know of events occuring later next month, you can still let us know about them! 

Happy belated Earth Day, Happy Mother's Day, Happy Cinco De Mayo, and Happy Wanderings!
