Ask A Fairy: Thimble and Blossom Are Back! 

Besides the fall foliage and fresh apple picking available in the fall season, there’s one other thing we all look forward to - the return of the fairies! Each fall Thimble and Blossom migrate through the North Country on their way south for the winter. During their travels they spend a lot of time chatting with chipmunks, lounging with ladybugs, playing with plants. Through all their woodland time they’ve become excellent naturalists, and are now here to answer any questions you may have! Between October 3rd and 24th, use the clues to find our homes on trails around the North Country.

The First Snowfall of the Season!

The first of many chilly and snowy mornings in the North Country has me looking forward to all the winter months have to offer.
