It’s going to be a fantastic weekend at Gritt’s Farm! Come up to the farm to shop for produce and plants, and enjoy some of their specialty pizzas, wraps, salads, topped off with ice cream or other sweets at Teagan’s Treats.  Weekends at Gritt’s are going to be hopping this spring through Mother’s Day with farm-fresh veggies, pre-order picnic baskets you can enjoy on weekends with your family at the farm, and more! Check out their Facebook page and website at www.grittsfarm.com for more information.

If you’ve had a long week, check out some of the Happy Hour deals many of our local restaurants offer! Fireside Grille is offering half-price on their famous fried pickles and stuffed mushrooms, and their patio is just begging for you to enjoy this evening’s gorgeous weather on it! Bubbarino’s Bites & Bubbles recently updated their Happy Hour drink options to include more customer favorites! Applebee’s has a perfect patio for enjoying an evening outside, as does Bad Happy Burritos. What’s your favorite Putnam County spot to grab a Happy Hour special on the weekend?

Saturday from 9am-1pm at Bolts Lawn Care in Frazier’s Bottom is the official kick-off of the 2026 Area-Wide Clean-Ups in #PutnamWV. Do you have stuff lying around that’s too big for your weekly trash pick-up that you need to get rid of? If it’s something that would be appropriate for the landfill, bring it out and get rid of it! Visit the Putnam County Solid Waste Authority’s Facebook page for exclusions so you don’t waste a trip bringing an item that won’t be accepted.

The Teays Valley Church of the Nazarene is putting on a free concert Sunday evening with the band Chosen Road. This event will start at 6:00pm and will put you in just the right frame of mind to start a new week!

Make it a great weekend, Putnam County!
