1. Cape Cod Restaurant Booked a GOP Meet-And-Greet; Then Came the Threats, a Hoax 911 call, and $52,000 Hole (newbedfordguide.com) ā A North Truro restaurant says hosting a Republican meet-and-greet led to online threats, a hoax 911 call that drew Truro and neighboring police plus a State Police helicopter, and a steep drop in business. Owner Ed Medeiros reports revenue down by tens of thousands and staff shaken, while state political figures from both parties condemn threats and call for investigations into the false emergency call.

2. The Wreck of the Somerset (provincetownindependent.org) ā A dramatic Revolutionary Warāera shipwreck off the Truro-Provincetown back shore once drew local residents to salvage goods and later inspired generations of storytellers and historians. The article traces how the H.M.S. Somerset grounded near Truro, what happened to its crew and cargo, and where curious Outer Cape residents can still see artifacts from the wreck today. Ā Ā Ā
3. Farmers, gardeners, and landscapers adapt as our climate changes (capeandislands.org) ā Farmers and gardeners in Truro and neighboring Cape towns are shifting what and when they plant as warmer winters extend the growing season. Local growers now successfully raise heat-loving crops like okra and even consider peanuts, while landscapers adjust schedules and soil practices to handle later frosts, heavier downpours, and longer stretches of drought.

4. 24-Unit Condo Complex Proposed for āNapiville' Doesn't Charm (provincetownindependent.org) ā A major condo proposal for Provincetownās Bradford Street, replacing much of the longtime āNapivilleā complex with 24 units and underground parking, is drawing strong pushback from neighbors and the historic district commission. While the architect cites Truroās Kalmar Village and other cottage colonies as inspiration, local officials say the projectās scale, demolition plans, and garage clash with the neighborhoodās historic character.
