Part two of the pumpkin I couldn’t resist taking a selfie with—this time, all lit up at night! 🎃

A special shoutout to Micheal and his son for creating this amazing pumpkin out of stacked wood. You two did such an incredible job, and seeing it glow at night makes it even better!

If you’d like to see it for yourself, it’s next to the Mobil on Main Street in Townsend, Massachusetts. Definitely stop by and check it out—it’s worth seeing!

Good morning, everybody! 🍂 Before you head out to search for this week’s $100 BuzzDrop, here are a few friendly safety reminders:

🟠 Wear bright colors. Blaze orange is preferred, but if you don’t have any on hand, choose bright clothing that helps you stand out in the woods and stay visible to anyone who may be hunting nearby.

📍 Always let somebody know where you’re going.

🥾 Wear a good pair of boots for this one! Some areas of the trails are really wet, and there are rocky sections, too. Watch your step, take your time, and enjoy the walk.

🌿 Leave nature as you found it. There’s never any need to dig—we never bury the BuzzDrop!

Most importantly, get out there and have some fun! It really is a beautiful forest, especially this time of year. I loved exploring this trail, and I hope you will, too. 🍁

Happy hunting, and remember to share your adventures with The New England Buzz—we love hearing about them! 🧡

Tag Lancaster—you’re it! Welcome to BUZZDROP! 🎃

Inside this week’s BuzzDrop, you’ll find:

🎃 $100 cash
🎃 A beautifully painted rock from Patti Shaw of Leominster ROX

Please remember: there’s never any need to dig—we never bury the BuzzDrop! Leave nature as you found it, and always tell someone where you’re going.

For this week’s hunt, I definitely suggest wearing good boots and watching your step. Depending on which trail you take, you may encounter rocks and wet, slippery spots. Take your time and watch your footing—we want everyone to have fun and stay safe!
