Rachel & Dave: It's about time!
Things To Do
Brattleboro, VT
So we live in Guilford, VT, but there are maybe 4 businesses in Guilford. Brattleboro is where everyone goes. Downtown (ok, it's basically just Main St, but it's cute!) is full of art galleries, funky shops, and historical what-not. Definitely worth a walk through.
Brattleboro Museum & Art Center
Charming museum full of fun art in downtown Brattleboro. Worth a wander!
Gallery In the Woods
This one is our favorite downtown gallery, but check them all out and let us know if you agree!
Magic Wings Butterfly Conservatory
This is a favorite. If you aren't afraid of being buzzed by butterflies, this is a must-see. Morning is when the butterflies tend to be most active, but it's a winner any time. It's located about 30 minutes south of Brattleboro, but a really cool place.
The Stone Church
This is a cool music venue on Main St in Brattleboro.
Latchis Theatre
Historical landmark and movie theater. The fact that it's a historical landmark means that they don't need to charge outrageous amounts for movie tickets. Right downtown Brattleboro!
Blueberry Haus
There's the small location that's downtown if you're hankering for ice cream and don't want to wait. But I recommend the Guilford location. Sit outside, eat your ice cream, enjoy the views.
Green Mountain Orchards Inc
We love the orchards around us. We are getting hitched at a different one, but Green Mountain Orchard is an awesome place just to wander. Too bad we aren't getting hitched in September- there's nothing like picking a bag full of great big honeycrisp apples as you wander through the trees. Maybe something else will be ready to be picked in June!
Fort Dummer State Park
Time for a hike? Take a wander through the state park!
Keene
Keene is about 30 minutes from Brattleboro. It has a charming downtown and is more of a city than a town, so it has real box stores like Target and Home Depot! Just in case you are hankering for that city-livin.
The In-Sight Photography Project
Shameless plug. In-Sight is the non-profit where I work. We have been around for over 30 years, teaching the youth of the community photography. It's very cool and we have the best view on Main St!
Midnight’s
You go in the door, then proceed underground. But it's more spacious than you would think! Fancy a drink?
Vermont Center for Photography
Rachel used to be on the board at VCP- it's a lovely photo gallery with store full of vintage photo gear. Stop in and say hi to Josh!
