Virtual activities that don’t require paid subscriptions include Buzzfeed Quiz Parties and Jackbox Games.
SOCIALLY DISTANCED PICNIC Meet your friends at a park or any large outside area. Make sure everyone brings their own food and picnic blanket and follows proper social distancing guidelines. Have fun chatting and if it gets cold, consider starting a bonfire.

Wilson’s Orchard & Farm is still in business this year. You can collect fresh apples on their farm, but face masks are required when you enter their market. It is recommended that you stay six feet away from other guests and do not eat apples in the field. Besides apple picking, you can pick pumpkins and purchase their delicious cider and baked treats. Wilson’s ensures that their staff follows sanitation guidelines and provides hand sanitizer to guests.
