Every business wants visibility.
The smart ones choose where they want to be seen.
Whose radar do you want to be on?

Reach is easy.
Trust is earned.

The most effective marketing doesn’t shout...
it shows up consistently,
in the right homes,
with the right message.

Whose radar do you want to be on?

Let’s put your business where it belongs
in front of the people who are already looking for you.

Every business wants visibility.
But visibility without trust doesn’t move the needle.

In a community like Barrington, where you show up matters just as much as how often you do.

Whose radar are you really trying to be on?

If this resonates, let’s talk. Your ideal clients live right here.

WAY BACK WEDNESDAY TRIVIA! ✨

Last December, we featured the King family on our cover — a Barrington family who made an incredible journey from Hong Kong all the way to Rhode Island. Their story had everything: resilience, huge life pivots, homeschooling, photography… and a completely unexpected talent for baking.

Here’s a fun detail from their feature — let’s see if you remember it:

What was the very first bread Po Tim learned to bake when their now-beloved family bread business began?

A) Sourdough
B) Rye bread
C) Japanese milk bread
D) Whole wheat

WAY BACK WEDNESDAY ✨⏳

Today we’re traveling back across the bay to one of Rhode Island’s most surprising hidden gems… Prudence Island.

From Barrington Beach it looks quiet and unassuming — but this 1-by-6 mile stretch of land has lived MANY lives:

🌿 A 1600s “independent republic”
In 1672, John Paine actually declared the island Sophy Manor and ruled as its manorial lord… for three months before being arrested for inventing his own government. (A+ for confidence.)

🏰 A Gilded Age estate that nobody ever lived in
In the early 1900s, James Garland built a massive 36-room stone mansion overlooking Potter Cove… only to pass away just before move-in. The mansion eventually became a summer camp before burning down in the 1970s.

🌊 Wild island adventures
Rachel Chase Boynton (born 1894 on Prudence) remembered exploring the abandoned mansion, roaming a wrecked excursion boat, and even walking across the frozen bay to Warwick Neck in winter. Absolutely iconic.

🎥 Movie-worthy characters
Her twin sister, Rebecca, became one of the first U.S. women with a commercial pilot’s license, worked as a stunt diver, and once aquaplaned around Bristol Harbor while standing on her husband’s shoulders.

And all of it happened just a short ferry ride from Bristol.

Story by Scott Bean, from our June 2025 issue.

The answer is TULIPS…

…the spring bulbs that are perfectly happy being planted fashionably late.

Tulips don’t mind waiting until late November — even early December — as long as they’re kept cool and dry.
A little fun throwback wisdom from the Barrington Garden Club and a reminder that some blooms show up beautifully, even when they’re running behind.

WAY BACK WEDNESDAY ✨

Looking back to December 2022, when Laura Kaplan created a completely gluten-free, vegan gingerbread house for our Plant-Based Barrington column. Sturdy, beautiful, and fully edible — it was one of our most-requested holiday recipes.

If you want the full recipe to make your own gluten-free gingerbread house this season, comment “GF house” below and I’ll send it to you.
