✨ This Weekend on Martha's Vineyard: 3/21-3/23
playground guide, lotsa foodie news, a bunch of mindfulness and sound bath options
Did March unofficially become Martha’s Vineyard for Foodies??!! I swear more than half of the events this month are focused on eating delicious things, learning from accomplished chefs, and anticipation for new restaurants to open!
I am deep into research for my “What’s New for 2025” Guide that publishes in April, so a reminder that if your business has a change or update for this season please reply to this email with the exciting news to share. For those excited to read: stand by! Soon!
⏱️ This Week on MVacay
🪁 Guide to Playgrounds on Martha's Vineyard (2025)
The guide I needed three years ago, when I only thought there was one playground on MV. After years of searching, snapping pics, packing picnics, the ULTIMATE MV playground guide finally exists :)
