Guide Me Home to Chatham, NJ

Apples, pumpkins, corn stalks, and various colors of mums all signal the start of the fall season! It’s hard to believe that summer has passed and fall is officially here. I hope everyone had a great start to the new school year; the real sign that fall has arrived.

As the leaves begin to change, there are many fun events to experience this time of year. Most local farmer’s markets will stay open through the fall season. A favorite of ours is the return of apple cider from local farms. A wonderful way to spend an afternoon with kids is at the local corn maze at Wightman’s. They have hayrides, pumpkins and much more.
