- Arrive early for "Vendor Pop Ups" and "Fall Market" to get the best selection of unique crafts and local produce before they sell out.
- For "Toddler Tuesday" and "Sensory Play," confirm the exact return date in October and consider arriving a bit before the start time as space may be limited.
- Bring a picnic blanket or chairs for "Brunch Hangs" and "Fall Market" to ensure comfortable seating while enjoying the atmosphere and entertainment.
