A terrific comment that came in via email:
Marian Langhus here from Lang House BnB in the Village of Gagetown in New Brunswick, Canada.

This past weekend the annual “Vintage in the Village” took place. Six houses participate and guests go from house to house sampling wine and eating snacks. My husband and I joined the gift shop next door and pretty much snuck in on the parade of people going by. I “chalked” “Bacon Bark” on the streets with arrows pointing to the gift shop next door. My husband offered the passersby wine and bacon bark. (Think almond bark but you use bits of cooked bacon instead of almonds.) We talked to people about our adjacent BnB and antique quilt sales. We shared the gift shop veranda, ushered folks into the gift shop and advertised our BnB.
