Hopkinton Massachusetts - Scenic Springtime
Route 135 is the main street that runs through Hopkinton connecting it to Ashland to the east and Westborough on the west side of town. Along this route is the heart of Hopkinton with its downtown area including shops and restaurants such as Hopkinton Gourmet, Bill's Pizza, The Golden Spoon and The Dynasty Chinese restaurant.
Also located on Main Street in Hopkinton is the area known as Golden Pond. This is where an extensive assistant living complex is located which sits on ten acres of picturesque restored wetlands including a pond with its own gazebo. Park benches are situated near the pond to allow the public to stop by, feed the ducks and enjoy this pretty setting.
Hopkinton common is the backdrop for numerous events that take place in town. It is right at the starting point of the annual Boston Marathon and all of the festivities that happen on Patriot's Day.
On May 15 the common will be hosting The Parent Teacher Association Carnival and fun day. It is a day that promises to be filled with families enjoying games, magicians, musicians, crafts, delicious foods as well as a dunk tank.
At this time of the year Hopkinton Common is getting ready for weekly band concerts that will take place during the warm summer months.
Further along this route before crossing over into Ashland is the largest nursery in the area, Weston Nurseries.
With a professional staff of experienced planting experts and acres of land this family-owned business has been serving the greater Hopkinton area since 1923.
This time of the year, Weston Nurseries is bursting with plants and flowers and practical knowledge about how to beautify your home and yard. It is one of the places to be sure to visit on Main Street in Hopkinton on a beautiful spring afternoon.
