According to co-founder Tatiana Parent "Though we've launched all over America, our coverage in New England is particularly strong since that's my home." Born and raised in Ipswich, Massachusetts, August meant cramming in as many days as possible at Crane's Beach before school started. And the end of summer was prime time for eating out at The Clam Box and picking fruit at the Apple Orchard.
New England is also host to an abundance of old-school diners, drive-in movie theaters, antique stores, and historic attractions as well as beaches, bars and battlegrounds.
