Merry Local Shopping to You and Yours!
Ridgefield is featured as one of the Best Holiday New England Shopping Towns in the November/December issue of Yankee Magazine Magazine, on stands now!
With a photo of historic Keeler Tavern adorned in its merry, the article boasts about Ridgefield:
Holiday retail therapy meets 300 years of history along Main Street. Like a nostalgic Christmas card brought to life, gracious storefronts reflect red-beribboned lampposts and tree branches swarmed by white firefly lights. With tasteful gifts at down-to-earth prices and festive goings-on throughout December, don’t wait to visit—but come the darkening hours of Christmas Eve, Books on the Common is the one place, co-owner Ellen Burns assures us, “open until the last procrastinator leaves.”
And Yankee Magazine gives a shout out to our beloved Holiday Stroll and some holiday shopping hot spots:
Must Shops: Nancy O. (luxurious yarns and “statement” accessories), The Toy Chest (distinctive playthings), Audrey Road (vintage-inspired clothing and gifts).
Refuel: Holiday Luncheons at the Keeler Tavern Museum (December 6-10 by reservation)
Also among the holiday shopping best of New England: Brattleboro, Vermont, Freeport, Maine, Northampton, Massachusetts, and Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
"New England’s merriest shopping destinations celebrate one-of-a-kind stores; park-once, find-everything convenience; and events that make gift-hunting a joy," says Yankee Magazine writer, Kim Knox Beckius.
