The beaches of Martha’s Vineyard are easily one of the island’s top attractions and biggest draws for visitors and locals alike. Not only are the Vineyard beaches great in the Summer, but they’re equally magical in the off-season — and a lot less crowded too. Beaches are everywhere on Martha’s Vineyard, as they ring the ...

It’s almost that time of year again! Time for the splendor and joy of Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite, celebrating its 7th year of creating holiday memories for so many people. However, the Teddy Bear Suite is so much more than an event. It is one of the biggest fundraisers for the Martha’s Vineyard Boys & Girls Club’s Heal...

It was all smiles and handshakes, as Point B buyer client — and islander — Steve Handy Junior (right) closed on his first piece of real estate here on Martha’s Vineyard. With help from family and friends, Steve plans to start clearing his one acre lot on Clay Pit Road in Edgartown right away, and if the winter w...

If you have not been to The Larder lately, (this Fall), you might want to stop by. Though limited in hours this time of year, just Friday and Saturday, you can find all sorts of unique and local food items at this quirky, fun little shop. You never know what you’ll find. The Larder has a partnership with the Scottish Bakehouse...

It’s always nice to be able to do something for yourself, no matter how big or how small. I recently discovered Divine Med Spa, where you can definitely find a way to treat yourself.   I have walked by Divine time and time again, always wondering. Wonder no more, I made the trip. The space is beautiful, light and airy and...

I love Halloween. It’s definitely one of my top three holidays, right there with Christmas and Labor Day (sorry the Fall is such a magical time of year). Each year, I wait excitedly for the Martha’s Vineyard Public Charter School to begin placing their Halloween scarecrows. It has become a Fall family tradition. I like to take my ...

There is something special about walking into the Martha’s Vineyard Food & Wine Festival’s Grand Tasting. Perhaps it’s the anticipation of discovering new wines or the amazing food being served, or the fact that this event is like an epic Fall gathering of locals and visitors. The Grand Tasting is held on the grounds of the Ha...

From writing about what was new with this year’s Local Wild Food Challenge, I was excited to go and experience the event. And I was not disappointed. This year, I tried a new approach. Instead of going right when the LWFC opened its “gates,” I went with my family around 1:30 p.m. My reasoning for this was because I could get lunch...

Wow has the Local Wild Food Challenge changed since I went in 2015. Last year, the event found a new home, the FARM Institute, and boy has it grown into quite the event. From talking with event founder, Bill Manson, I think this incredible, one-of-a-kind experience, has found its Island groove. Local Wild Food Challenge At the core...

Sit. Chat. Chew. is the new mission of Park Corner Food Bar in Oak Bluffs. Note the “bistro” part is gone too. A lot has changed with the small corner bar/dining spot, and I was happy with what’s new. You’ve probably wondered why in all my blogs, I have never mentioned Park Corner. A few years back, I had an unpleasant experience ...
