A very special shoutout to the Fabulous Fluff Planning Team who– for a’nutter year – has had to innovate to make possible this year’s memories given the ongoing pandemic. Their love for Fluff, endless creativity, and knack for sticky situation problem resolving has sustained this beloved community tradition for a second year in a row. This spoonful of Somerville is exactly what we all crave. Simply put, the Fabulous Fluff Planning team is the peanut butter to Union Square Main Streets Fluff !
