Get Out: Bee Keeping, Art and Consignment Sales
Patch offers some ideas for the upcoming weekend for you and the family.
The weekend try something new. Take a workshop on bees and start your own hive. Stroll State Street at 2nd Saturday, attend a chef contest or listen to the voices of Brotherly Love and SheWho. If none of that interests you, go shopping at a Second Time Around kids consignment sale.
