Top Things to do in Martha's Vineyard
9 Farms in Martha's Vineyard That You Shouldn't Miss
Yes, getting there is a bit of a project. But vacationers have been braving the ferry for years, and this tiny island off Cape Cod remains one of the most popular and picturesque destinations in New England. Among the island's towns, you're sure to find the Vineyard that's right for you. With stately Greek revival houses dating back to the whaling era of the early 19th century, Edgartown is a seaside village of boutique shopping and pristine harbor views. For more of a "beach town" feel, Oak Bluffs has the Flying Horses carousel, an arcade and an easy walk to the beach, plus the history and charm of the "gingerbread" houses in the Methodist campgrounds. Vineyard Haven offers visitors a blend of both. For a real retreat, Chilmark/Aquinnah is the place to get away from it all. In the off-season, the island is quieter and far less crowded, but the shore is always beautiful. Whenever you visit, leave your car behind! Cabs are plentiful and greet the incoming ferries to help you reach your destination. Most visitors prefer to explore the island on a bicycle, scooter or tourist-friendly public buses.

Definitely make it a point to come here and schedule a walk with an alpaca! My husband and I had the opportunity to walk 2 male Alpacas with Tayla and she was so sweet and informative :) The gift shop had so many handmade genuine items made with Alpaca fiber! I bought a winter hat, socks and gloves and they are the most comfortable things ever! So warm! Very reasonable priced! I would recommend this activity for everyone. Young and old

Morning Glory Farm was founded in 1975 by Debbie and Jim Athearn, who now assist their sons Simon and Daniel in running the farm and farmstand. We raise vegetables and fruits on about 65 acres of land in Edgartown, some of it our own and the rest leased from neighbors. Our flower farm in West Tisbury and our cattle operation in Chilmark are both on family land. At our farmstand in Edgartown, we produce scratch-made breads, pies and other baked goods, along with soups, salads, heat and eat entrees and preserves. We also stock carefully selected groceries, including produce from mainland farms to supplement what we grow for you. Our rule is that the quality of what we order from off-Island must meet or exceed the quality of what we raise on the Vineyard.

Out visit was based off a recommendation, very pleased we revived it. We loved it there and picked up some fresh eggs, milk and wonderful cheese grated over salads and on fresh sour dough bread... yum! Highly recommend and have already been back.
