It's all happening here in NYC: The third and final phase of The High Line opens and gallery-in-shipping-containers Photoville returns to Brooklyn Bridge Park. – Pavia, founder

Wood-fired pizzas, pick your own apples, and stylish New York owners are just a few of the reasons I'm adding Hudson Valley's Westwind Orchard to my fall field trip list. – Berit, assistant editor
