Briar Chapel’s fall festivities are no tricks and all treats! Community Lifestyle Director Alyssa Alegre is dishing out the sweet scoop on all the spectacularly spooky Halloween happenings.
With spring right around the corner, there's no better time to spruce up your outdoor living space than our Greenest Open House, slated for March 21st, 2015!
Briar Chapel takes advantage of its on-site dog park to host a Dog Days of Summer event benefiting local pet charity Paws4ever. With dogie ice cream, a pet training seminar, costume contest and trail trot being offered, a good time will be had by all.
Open houses are fun, especially when there's a lot to see. Lucky for you, we're hosting Chapel Hill's Largest and Greenest Open House! Come to Briar Chapel and view 40+ move-in ready homes of all size and price ranges.
With seven entries in this years Green Home Tour, the builders at Briar Chapel really stepped it up. This means more of the green-built homes you love but less driving around. Come out and see us!
Every day is Earth Day at Briar Chapel, but we just couldn't resisit throwing an actual celebration. Kicking off the day is a 5k beneffitting our friends at The Abundance Foundation, followed by a festival. With food trucks, games, live music and even a beer tasting, there's really no better way to spend your Saturday.
Earth Day in Briar Chapel is always a fabulous day, but we were especially excited this year as our event grew larger than year’s past. Your commitment to supporting the community in which you live was a truly amazing gesture – we enjoyed spending our day with you!
Like so many others across the country, the residents at Briar Chapel are reaping the benefits of a community garden, and just in time: it's almost Earth Day!
Earth Day is almost here and we are especially excited at Briar Chapel! If you’ve joined us in the past – you know you’re in for a treat! Come early and stay late this year as we celebrate all things local.
Fun, retro, shiny, and CUTE – These are just a few of the words that came to mind upon seeing a “Buddy” Scooter in person for the first time during my visit to Combustion Cycles.
When it comes to the 2011 Parade of Homes, an appetizer just wasn't quite enough. We should first start by congratulating our Parade Winners: Homes by Dickerson for Gold and David Weekley Homes for Silver.
Do you think your pepper jelly will tempt the taste buds of our local judges? Why not try it and see? Much like a pie baking contest at your annual fair - pepper jelly simply makes sense, as this is the season for harvesting peppers as well as supporting a local non-profit organization
Here we are only a week away! And we want to highlight another way for you to show of your skills in our Best Backyard Athlete competition. (If you aren't familiar with the OktoberBEST event, please see our earlier blog about our fall celebration.)
Preparations continue for our OktoberBEST event - we thought we would check in and share with you more details of one of the competitions, The Greatest Arm Chair Athlete.
The summer has been long and hot and we crave those cool breezes of September/October. So to honor the advent of fall and in order to offer a "sneak preview" of our newest neighborhood, we decided to host OktoberBEST at Briar Chapel.
Along with the Earth Day Festivities at Briar Chapel the weekend of April 17 - 18, we are excited to be raising awareness around living sustainably with the Town of Chapel Hill and other local businesses during Earth Action Day April 10th.
As we approach Earth Day on April 22, 2010, we at Briar Chapel view this as a special opportunity to bring a greater awareness to the cornerstones that we live and breathe on a daily basis.
