Best known for our genuine stone ground cornmeal, especially stone ground white cornmeal (or Johnny Cake Meal) to make Johnny Cakes. This traditional Rhode Island food dates back to the colonial time when Native American Indians introduced corn to the settlers. At first, they were known as "Journey Cakes". Settlers often took them along on their journeys. The "r" eventually got dropped and "Journey Cakes" became "Johnny Cakes."

WaterFire is a sculpture by Barnaby Evans presented on the rivers of downtown Providence, RI. It was first created by Evans in 1994 to celebrate the tenth anniversary of First Night Providence, and has since become a free public art installation. WaterFire's symbolism and interpretation reflects on the recognition that individuals must act together to strengthen and preserve their community.
On WaterFire evenings, downtown Providence is transformed by eighty-six burning braziers (each with approximately 33 pieces of wood); some float just above the surface of the rivers that flow through Waterplace Park (the Woonasquatucket River) and the middle of downtown Providence (the Moshassuck and Providence rivers; others are mounted on the piers of former bridges. The public is invited to come and walk the riverfront and enjoy the flickering firelight, the fragrant scent of aromatic wood smoke, the changing silhouettes of the volunteer fire tenders, and the music. Average attendance is 40,000 a night, ranging from 10,000 to 100,000.
WaterFire is held May through November, with lightings typically on Saturday evenings once or twice a month. The rivers are tidal, so events are normally scheduled to take place when sunset coincides with an incoming high tide.

BIRD WATCHING SPOTS
Winnapaug Pond
Birding hotspot. A salt pond not permanently connected to the Block Island Sound. Nests of the piping plover, which has been federally designated as a threatened species, have been documented within the watershed. No rivers or streams flow into the pond. Maschaug Pond, like others in the region, was formed after the recession of the glaciers 12,000 years ago.

Ninigret Pond
Napatree Point juts out from the Watch Hill area in Westerly, and is a wonderful place for a stunningly beautiful beach stroll or for great bird watching. This is a hot spot for shorebirds in summer/fall and Hawks in late summer/early fall. Owned, maintained and managed by the Audubon Society and the Watch Hill Fire District. Interesting history if you want to research further.

Colt State Park is a true gem within the State Park System. With 464 acres of lawns, four miles of paved pathways, hiking trails, historic stone walls, and one of the state’s most spectacular shorelines, Colt State Park is a favorite among visitors and locals alike. The park lies minutes away from the historic center of Bristol, home of the oldest 4th of July parade in the country. It is adjacent to Coggeshall Farm Museum (a living history museum representing farm life in the 1790s), and the Bristol Town Beach and Sports Complex.
