Local Loves: Whetstone Station

Sometimes, in the dead of Winter when the wind is howling, the temperatures are dropping, and the days are dragging – nothing is more helpful in saving one’s sanity than a scenic drive and some comfort food in a warm and cozy setting with a picturesque view.

Between the recent periods of torrential rain/flooding, snow squalls, and then sporadic bursts of sunshine and high temperatures (AKA January in New England, everyone!) it’s nice to just escape the outdoors- even for an hour or two- and cozy up somewhere warm and filled with both greenery and caffeine. Thankfully, Green Haus Café – located […]
