✅This week's recommendation

It's a great time of the year to take a day and get away from things a little bit. Head on up to the Town of Maine to snag some food from Country Wagon Produce Market for some picnic supplies and head for a hike at Broome County's Dorchester or Greenwood Parks!

Let me know ways I can improve this newsletter!
