Step outside this morning and you can feel it, fall is in the air. And I don’t know how it works in your house, but once fall arrives, there’s just something about getting out an enjoying it whenever and wherever you can. A GREAT spot this weekend is in South Charlotte. Specifically, the city of Matthews and their annual “Fall for Matthews” festival.
This is a free event at 210 Matthews Station Street, Matthews, taking place from 10am-4pm. “Fall for Matthews” is put on each year by the Matthews Chamber of Commerce and delivers free fun for the entire family. All day Saturday, come out and enjoy:
-Arts and crafts vendors
-Live music
-Sip & Stroll
-Food vendors
-Children’s area
-Pumpkin patch
-Petting zoo
Mom and Dad, if you’re on the fence. Listen to the voice of experience. One day you’re going to blink and that little one you have to take by the hand will be 22 and looking for other hands to hold. There will never come a moment when you will say, “Gee, I wish I didn’t take the time that weekend to spend time with the family at ‘Fall for Matthews.'”
So, if fall is calling your name and you’re looking for something the entire family can enjoy, then head to 210 Matthews Station Street in downtown Matthews tomorrow for “Fall for Matthews.” The fun gets underway at 10am and goes until 4 in the afternoon. And best of all? Admission into “Fall for Matthews” is absolutely free.
7 Must Do Activities In North Carolina This Fall
Have you created your fall bucket list yet? This weekend is Labor Day and the unofficial kick-off to fall. The kids are back in school, football is back, and pumpkin spice lattes are in Starbucks. Now the weather just needs to catch up. But soon we will be in sweaters, with leaves falling around us, surrounded by pumpkins and the smell of fresh cider. Which means it’s time to plan for the best season of the year. So I’m here with some must-do activities in North Carolina this fall.
So get your boots on, it’s time to Fall in love with Fall. There is no shortage of fun activities to partake in across the state of North Carolina this September through November. Which is your favorite part of the season? The leaves falling, the pumpkin carving, or all the delicious beverages to taste. I just want to scream “It’s fall y’all”. Except it still feels like a sauna outside currently, and this weekend it was too hot to even go to the pool. Which left me with plenty of time to daydream about the cooler weather and all the fun to be had. I even put my football pumpkin on my porch because it’s time ladies and gentlemen, it’s time!
