Next, people could meander down to our new “Whipple Farm Overlook,” where they were served shrimp cocktails and hard (and soft) lemonade. Some grabbed a seat by the firepit and looked out at our beautiful 5 acres of conservation land.

After people were seated under the tent, they were served steamed clams with drawn butter, and enjoyed live music and singing by duo Bess Jacques and Per Hanson.

The lobsters this year were cooked tent-side, packed with seaweed, over an open flame – the real down east way! Our non-seafood-eating guests enjoyed organic roasted chicken. Fresh corn-on-the-cob, baby potatoes, coleslaw and rolls rounded out the feast. The evening was capped with a few sing-along songs, coffee and classic blueberry pie with whipped cream!

Residents Karen and David diggin’ in!

 

While everyone always raves about how nice the Lobster Bake is, this year people exclaimed that it truly was “the best ever!”
