The Boston Globe wrote up a quick guide for things to do in Wellfleet this autumn.  Check it out here and maybe do some house hunting while you're here.

"Celebrate agriculture, aquaculture, fishing and farming on Cape Cod"

This is the tag line for the fair and it's an apt one. Folks on the Outer Cape are becoming more and more interested in farming and eating local.  Walk up to the Blackfish restaurant and see how the menu is geared toward eating foods grown right here in town. Visit Mac's Seafood and see how they are pushing the local catch. And drive around the Outer Cape and see all the road side farm stands.  Below are a few - we're sure there are more, so please send them our way to add to this blog. 

For more info on the fair visit www.TruroAgFair.com and to see a sampling of the fun at last year's fair see the slide show we did here. Like our aggies say, "Till, Baby Till"

About two years ago, the Town of Truro met at Town Meeting and voted to spend $2 million dollars to preserve a prominent piece of property known as Poor's Hill. This glacial dome sits proudly near the mouth of the Pamet River. Fearing its development, the Truro Conservation Trust, the Truro Open Space Committee and the Poor family worked together to ensure that the proeprty would be preserved forever. Brenda Boelyn was instrumental in this effort and her work was celebrated at the dedication event.

3Harbors had a great time at Truro's second annual Agricultural Fair.  Not only did we provide monetary support by being a sponsor but we became part of the event by agreeing to close the office so folks could walk down Truro Center Road in safety. It was a great time: local farmers with their produce, restaurants selling specially created dishes featuring local goods, political candidates pressing the flesh and even a pie eating contest. See you next year!

Check out this wonderful post from The Boston Globe about the community effort to renovate an old downtown church and turn it into Wellfleet's Preservation Hall.  3Harbors donates to Preservation Hall with every sale we have in Wellfleet and we're thrilled to be part of this community building effort!
