SWEET SNACKS First stop was the Village Hearth Bakery & Cafe. The amazing wife-and-wife duo Stephanie and Lindsay Haigh are the owners and operators of this cute bistro, and they ooze passion about what they do. Scratch-made pastries, breads, sandwiches, and more, as well as local organic coffee from Dean’s Beans, are all created and
curated with the utmost care. One step onto the ethereal property and we were immediately drawn to its charm. Secluded outdoor seating underneath a canopy of trees makes for the perfect intimate getaway, or a beautiful deck filled with private and communal seating options is perfect for friend groups. All of this is complemented by the aroma of fresh-baked goods and coffee
