Fall is arriving in South Jersey, and so are the smells of pumpkins, the turning of leaves, and lots of opportunities for fun!

If you're like me, and summer completely blew you by (I never made it to the beach or the boardwalk, not even once), then you don't want to end up having autumn FOMO. Here's a bunch of things to put on your fall bucket list!

    Hit Up a Cranberry Festival

    Just because it's pumpkin spice season doesn't mean cranberries should be overlooked! There's a great festival every October in Chatsworth!
