Windsor's downtown lawn and event stage, a pleasant free place for a blanket picnic with a playground nearby and shops across the street. It's liveliest on summer Thursday concert nights with the farmers market. The Town's 2025 park policy says you need a permit to drink here, even though the code only bans alcohol where a ban is posted, so leave the bottle in the car unless you've called ahead.
