There's lots of fun happening on the South Shore this week!

By Christina Skeldon September 22, 2022

Let me start with this, it was absolutely impossible to narrow down and pick 5 events for you this weekend. Please head to the event calendar asap to get the full line up because I don't think we have ever had such a jam packed weekend calendar! Something for everyone and so much fun to be had, with a perfect weekend forecast. 

1. Cut Your Own Dahlias, Friday-Sunday

My favorite flower is blooming and ready for clipping. My kids are surprisingly very into going to flower farms and picking or cutting flowers and what is better than leaving with a full bouquet of dahlias? Head to the event calendar for the full event details and to purchase a time slot!

2. Autumn Sidewalk Sale @ Derby Street, Saturday

Much more than a sidewalk sale, Derby Street has a full line up of events for the kiddos including: story time at Barnes and Noble, live DJ performance, face painting on the Green, cardboard knight costume event and live music on the green with Untold Brewing!

3. Hingham Nursery School Presents Touch-a-Truck, Saturday

Get ready to honk, climb and explore a variety or trucks and a school bus. Face painting, obstacle course, balloons and more! There is nothing my kids love more than a touch a truck! Get the full details on the event calendar!

4. 45TH ANNUAL CORN FESTIVAL, Saturday-Sunday

Popular with families and neighbors across the region, the SSYMCA annual Corn Festival is a two-day family-and-foodie-friendly event that celebrates the natural and cultural traditions surrounding the fall harvest in New England. Enjoy historical interpreters and storytellers, 4H farm animals, traditional crafts, live music (oldies, bluegrass, folk, country, and more), hay rides, corn maze, pony rides, games, and so much more.

5. 2022 Duck Derby, Sunday

Purchase your ducks for a good cause and head to Rexhame Beach on Sunday to see them be released by the Harbormaster. DJ, Cheerleaders, food and more! This is such a fun event and for a good cause!


Have a great weekend, friends!
