In Englewood, NJ, summer means fresh produce, nature exploration, fireworks and community.
As the Fourth of July approaches, prepare to take in the beautiful light show provided by Englewood’s Independence Day Fireworks Celebration, taking place on the Dwight Morrow High School front lawn on Wednesday, June 27th at 7pm. In addition to the dazzling fireworks, you can look forward to food, performances, live music and inflatables. In case of rain, the event will be held the following evening.
On Friday morning, the weekly farmers market can help you recover from the celebration. Take advantage of all the fruit, vegetables, eggs, flowers and other straight-from-the-farm offerings from 11am to 6pm at Depot Square Park on the corner of North Van Brunt Street and Demarest Avenue. If you can’t make it out this week, have no fear: the market will be held every Friday through October 26th.
If summer for you is more about working up a sweat, sign up for the 7th Annual Run in the Wild 5k Trail Run, coming up at Flat Rock Brook on Sunday, August 12th. Set in the nature center’s beautiful 150-acre preserve, the run is a great opportunity to explore the natural wonders that Englewood has to offer.
Whether you want to celebrate with community, enjoy the season’s scrumptious bounty, or take in the natural world, Englewood is a great place to enjoy the summer season.
