nique experiences surround us in Prince William, and we’ve got some great ones for you to check out this month. Our feature lists local farm stands, pick-your-own produce opportunities and the best spots for locally raised meats. Agritourism is alive and well in our area, and we’re sharing some excellent experiences with you. Looking for a new spot to grab a fresh bite to eat? Check out Local Flavor for the details on Taste of Old Country. Stop by their shop for award-winning olive oils, balsamic vinegars, specialty wines, honeys, teas and coffees, and visit the bistro side for made-to-order paninis, salads and small-bite plates. Looking to try something new this month? How about volksmarching, a form of noncompetitive fitness walking originating in Europe? Destinations brings you the story of the Wood & Dale Wanderers, a local walking club rooted in volksmarching. Or how about focusing on improving your study habits? Lifelong Learning teaches you how. Prince William area schools offer some of the best bands and orchestras around. This month’s On a High Note section is all
about them. Read up on some of their greatest achievements and reasons why band is such a highlight within the local school system. Volunteer Prince William is our focus in Giving Back, an organization that gives back all year long by bringing so many of us together. Learn how they successfully connect volunteers with charitable causes and how you can get involved. And if you have a cause or two you are already passionate about, you may wish to include them in your financial planning. Your Finances can help you create a strategy for charitable giving.
