Weekend Happenings: Craft Fairs, Pumpkin Festivals and More

You don't have to travel far to enjoy a variety of activities this weekend.

When/Where: Saturday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. at First Parish of Sudbury, 327 Concord Road, Sudbury.

Why Go: It's a 110-year-old craft fair. But if the tried-and-true element isn't enough to convince you, how about the 65 booths of arts and crafts in a juried craft fair. Oh, and stop by for homemade soup and bread at lunch.
