Spring is here (a bit early this year)! The businesses of northeastern Connecticut are sprucing up their storefronts, adding new inventory, updating menus (to include locally grown items) and many are making plans for some unique events to entertain residents and visitors throughout the season.

The popular First Fridays events will kick off May 4th @ 6pm in Downtown Putnam. Enjoy art exhibits & demonstrations, live performances, and entertainment for everyone. 85 Main's 4th Annual Shuck-Off event will take place on May 6th from 12-6pm in Rotary Park.

Dine outdoors, patios will no doubt be open early this year. If you enjoy shopping, go for a wine tasting at Taylor Brooke Winery or spruce up your wardrobe with a visit to Coco's Cottage, both located in Woodstock. For the adventurous type, check out the new inventory at Danielson Adventure Sports and so much more!
