YARDLEY, PA — Yardley can be a lively place and it's not easy to keep up with what's happening.
One way people are reconnecting right now is via Facebook groups focused on specific places and interests. There's no need to get lost in the scroll. Patch has done the footwork of separating out inactive pages and has identified a few must-check-out Yardley Facebook groups.
Yardley Farmers Market
More than 6,000 follow the Yardley Farmers Market Facebook page to see what's happening at Buttonwood Park. The nonprofit posts updates on vendors and availability with pics of tasty goods and other wares you'll find when you venture out on market days.

Yardley Restaurant Week
Restaurant Week is in August in Yardley, so you may want to follow the event page as businesses get ready. Many of Yardley's great eateries have their own Facebook pages and there does not seem to be a meeting page that's kept current. This means you might use the FB search bar to find "Yardley restaurants" and find out about specials, hours, and events at Borough establishments.
Here are two examples:
Yardley Beer Company and Washington Crossing Inn
Yardley Beer Company is a favorite local distributor and may be worth following if beverage specials are of interest to you. The Yardley/Morrisville beer, wine, and spirits store is a hub of sales for non-alcoholic beers, sodas, kegs, and water, too. You'll even see some community events on your scroll if you follow, so check it out.
The Washington Crossing Inn has 4,000 followers. The historic inn's Facebook page offers info on the upcoming Easter Buffet, special menu items, and hours.
Here's another bonus page suggestion:
Morrisville Community Events
Nearby Morrisville is of interest to many Yardley residents and if you want to follow events just down the Delaware River, this Facebook page is busy and full of what's happening.
