Are you planning a trip to Rhode Island soon? Fortunately, Christy’s Car & Truck Rental is located about 15 minutes away from the Providence airport. As fall approaches, it brings with it lots of cool things to see and do around Johnston. After renting your vehicle, consider visiting any of the places in this article during your stay.

1. Verde Vineyards

Located just over seven miles to the west of Christy’s, off of Highway 6, is Verde Vineyards. Bacchus, the god of wine, sits atop one of the buildings in this vineyard with a view. During nice weather, you can sit at a picnic table under the oak trees and take in the natural beauty as you enjoy a wine tasting. You could also opt to take a yoga class or participate in a book exchange. Then, purchase a bottle of one of their award-winning wines to enjoy later. Finally, check out their events to see what might be happening during your trip. 

2. Pezza Farm

Next on the list of things to see is the Pezza Farm, which got its start in 1947. No matter what time of year you visit, there is something to see, do, and enjoy. In fall, mums, kale, pumpkins, and gourds all await your arrival. Additionally, hayrides, scarecrows, and fresh veggies abound. That being said, they have so much more to offer. If you’d like to support a local farm, purchase quality products, and enjoy nature, give them a try. 

3. Johnston Memorial Park

This beautiful park sits a mere three miles from Christy’s. Drive your rental car to check out the park, whose mission is to develop children and adults developmentally through recreational activities. Thus, they regularly offer activities, such as soccer, softball, and even football and wrestling. Also, the fall provides jaw-dropping colors, with blue skies, changing leaves, green space, and water. Whether you prefer to relax at a picnic or participate in a sport or recreational activity, the park has something for you. 

4. Base Station Virtual Reality

If wine, farms, and nature aren’t your thing, how about virtual reality? When it comes to things to see, zombies may not immediately come to mind. However, virtual reality can be both fun and a great escape from actual reality. Consequently, this may be a great treat to forget about a bad day. At the same time, you can use it for group events, like birthdays or corporate events. They allow you to bring in your own food and drinks, too.
