It’s always fun to discover new things to do during quieter times on Martha’s Vineyard. Recently, I walked into Vineyard Knitworks for the first time. Located on State Road in Vineyard Haven, this shop is like a little haven. When you walk in, you’re treated to soft music, beautiful yarn as far as the eye can see, and smiling face...

I love a good theme night for dinner, a party, just about anything. When I heard of Veggie-Centric Sunday at Offshore Ale, I knew I would have to check it out.

These nights are usually quite popular and offer a great w...

Lucky for us, when Emily Coulter bought the flower/gift shop in Vineyard Haven, she continued the tradition. What is Tulip Tuesday? Well, it’s probably one of the easiest ways to brighten up ...

I was able to sit and catch up with The Ritz‘ general manager, Ben DeForest (not a mistake, Ben has been the GM since the Fall). I like chatting with Ben — it’s half motivation speaker (though he may not know it) and half interesting Island happenings. Ben has made a lot of changes in his life over the past year and a half. He has...
