OUTDOOR DINING

Arrowood Farm Brewery in Accord is a great outdoor spot for lunch / light dinner (their goose berry sandwich is amazing) and good local beer. In the summer you can play cornhole and watch their ducks waddle across the lawn. In winter, cozy up by an outdoor fire. They’re also dog friendly: https://arrowoodfarms.com/

Backyard dining with super yum locally-sourced ingredients and great cocktails. They also offer whole animal butchery and have the hands-down best bacon we've ever had (they smoke it in house). Full disclaimer: we are friends with one of the owners, but they really do have incredible food! They are offering our Airbnb guests free natural wine so mention our names if you go (Bea and Tyler): https://www.lunchnightly.com/
