Between holidays and snow days, The County is magical in winter.

Swimsuit weather is over but the icy lakeshores make for stunning walks and photography. Warm up at a local winery, brewery, cidery or restaurant – they often have bonfires and snowshoes on hand. Head downtown to peruse boutique shops and find that perfect County-made gift, or two, in case you eat one on the way home. Winter in The County feels nostalgic and vibrant, it’s when the winemaker is the one pouring your samples and you can tour like a local.

Traditional winter events in The County include…

• Wassail
• Busy Hands
• Bloomfield Festival of Lights
• Flashback February
