The Summer is full of events that support our wonderful Island non-profits. Most of the events are geared toward a certain age group, but not the Martha’s Vineyard Preservation Trust Generations Picnic. This event is literally for the generations, from baby to great grandparents. This is a family fun event. On a gor...

It was just like any other Tuesday in July until I made my way to Edgartown. Parking was a breeze, and I made my way to Rosewater Market & Take Away. This was its opening day and I had to see the finished product. As I walked down South Summer Street, I passed several familiar faces, all carrying coffee and other goodies from ...

*Oak Bluffs Fish Market opening postponed to 2016. With July in full swing, it’s nice to know that soon I will not have to travel to Vineyard Haven or Edgartown to pick up some fresh fish for dinner. Oak Bluffs Fish Market is opening later this month which is pretty exciting for all of us who live, work or are visiting Oak Bluffs....

Last year, I missed the Martha’s Vineyard Sound – Indie Music Festival, but am determined to not make the same mistake again. So, I thought it would be a good idea to meet with the music festival’s producer, Phil DaRosa to find out more about this event that’s full of local and national musical guests. The Scottish Bakehouse was th...

No matter what the season, I love Italian food. And, I love that you can get really good Italian food in Vineyard Haven at La Soffitta. La Soffitta, which means “the attic,” can be found in the space that used to be home to Le Grenier. Though both names mean the attic, the restaurants could not be more different. As you walk ...

If you’re like me, you might not have known that Chappy has a golf course, but it does. The Royal and Ancient Chappaquiddick Links actually dates back to 1887. Quite the history, yet it has remained a hidden gem on the little island. Brad Woodger, whose family has owned the course for 120 years, met me at the ferry on th...

Since they were kids, good friends Alex Nagi (chef/partner – Copper Wok and Martha’s Vineyard Chowder Company) and Chris Zakak wanted to find a business to do together. Two years ago, they decided to embark on it — and within that time, they came up with it. What is it you might wonder? Well, it is it Organic, c...

Chances are if you’ve been to Oak Bluffs Harbor recently, you’ve noticed a pirate ship. Your eyes are not deceiving you. Indeed the Sea Gypsy X is about to set sail on pirating adventures starting this Saturday, everyday, all Summer long with Pirate Adventures – Martha’s Vineyard. The Sea Gypsy belongs to Dockside owners, Jeremiah ...

When Jessica Kramer’s friend invited her to come to Martha’s Vineyard to work for a summer over a decade ago, little did she know that this amazing Island would become her home. After coming for a number of summers to work, she moved here full time three years ago. She fell in love with an Island boy, and Aquinnah became her home. ...

You know that I am a lover of themed things – food, parties, outfits, I don’t discriminate. So, you can imagine my excitement when I heard about the Ramen & Pho Pop-Up at the Beach Plum Restaurant on Mondays. If you didn’t know, Chef Nathan Gould is back on Island, and he has joined Island Chef Josh Aronie Up-Island at the Bea...
