The Perfect Mother’s Day Plans: A Weekend Getaway to the North Fork

Mother’s Day is more than just a brunch—it’s a chance to celebrate everything mom means to you with a weekend full of love, laughter, and maybe a little wine. If you’re searching for Mother’s Day plans that go beyond the basics, consider a getaway to the beautiful North Fork of Long Island. With its charming vineyards, farm-to-table restaurants, and waterfront views, it’s the ultimate backdrop for a relaxing and memorable weekend.

Here’s a curated itinerary to help you plan the perfect North Fork Mother’s Day weekend—with a must-visit stop at Suhru & Lieb Vineyards of course!


🌸 Scenic Sips & Seaside Strolls

Morning: Coffee & Shopping in Greenport
Start your weekend with fresh pastries and artisan coffee in the quaint, waterfront village of Greenport at the classic Aldo’s Coffee Company or the new Pip’s Cafe & Provisions. Then browse local boutiques, home goods stores, and handmade jewelry shops in the village.

Afternoon: Suhru & Lieb Vineyards – Wine, Music & Mother’s Day Vibes
No Mother’s Day weekend is complete without wine—and Suhru & Lieb Vineyards is a North Fork favorite.
