Pumpkin carving might not have a lot to do with sun care but it's darn fun! However, seeing all those wonderful carved pumpkins and not having a clue how to do one myself has always been a frustration. The best I've ever done is a simple smiley face with a jagged tooth or two. So I set out to figure out how the pros do it. After reading, watching and listening to everything I could find, here are the eight consistent and best tips I found. [More]

Halloween is one of my favorite times of year.  As a kid it was all about candy, candy, candy.  As an adult I can't say much has changed!  I still have a sweet tooth.  This year I'll be trick-or-treating with a few of my little nieces and I'm hoping they let me have a piece or two.  But what else is out there for Halloween? Well I did a little investigation for the Block Island / Rhode Island area and there's everything from hay rides to pumpkin picking to haunted houses. Tons of attractions. [More]

At Block Island Organics we are more than just work. Need some evidence? Just check out our sunny travels. Now, to celebrate Halloween we decided to put together some spooktastically fun stats. Things like what are the most popular costumes, how many pumpkins are used and how much candy we consume. Yes we eat a lot of candy during Halloween - it's hard to resist! [More]

New Year's Resolutions can be hard to keep. Particularly if they seem arduous. But hey, they could be fun ones too! Plus, I have a theory that if I post them publicly, I'll be more likely to follow through. At least that's my hope! So here are a few resolutions from myself and the other folks behind Block Island Organics. We'd love to hear what yours are! [More]
