Guilford is the site of not one but two food-related celebrations coming up. The Shoreline Chamber of Commerce is offering Taste of the Shoreline 2019 on Saturday, Sept. 7 from noon to 5 p.m. on the Guilford Green. More than 20 area restaurants and bakeries will be offering their best, and there also will be local entertainment and artists on hand. Find out more at www.shorelinechamberct.com. And, on Saturday, Sept. 14 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Guilford Commons, 1919 Boston Post Road, Guilford will be celebrating a Parking Lot Party with a live band, food trucks, a beer garden, and, perhaps to burn off some of those calories, a Pure Barre session. Find out more at www.facebook.com/GuilfordCommons, on the events tab.
