DIG THIS! HARVEST FEST

a cornucopia of … cornucopias

Once again, Pagan festivals prove that they are, without a doubt, the best kind of festival, with an afternoon-to-evening celebration of the ‘ville’s finest in feast-ery, drink-ening and tunes-afying. Ten local eateries offer nibbles from this year’s bounty, and 10 of New England’s choice craft brewers provide the artisan ales to wash them down with. In lieu of the slightly dated and generally frowned upon traditional human sacrifice, the organizers have instead decided on live local music and a fashion show.
