Attending the local Renaissance Faire in Carver, Massachusetts has become a family tradition for us. The opening weekend of the 2015 King Richard's Faire, scheduled for the weekend of September 5th (Labor Day weekend), will be our family's 5th visit to the Faire!
Our whole family is looking forward to seeing the Big Cat Show, Jacques Ze Whipper, the jousting, and more. It's just so nice to relax and enjoy the overall jovial atmosphere of the Faire. Oh, and shopping! We all love browsing through the vast variety of artisan shoppes.
