WELCOME
Picnic tables, blankets, wicker baskets filled with tantalizing foods, and outdoor games: welcome to America's favorite outing. Picnics date back to medieval England, and usually involved elaborate dining for the upper classes. Picnics in 14th-century Europe featured hams, baked and roasted meats, and pastries. For hundreds of years, a picnic was referred to as a potluck at a common table - a picnic table.
The picnic experience was not necessarily an outdoor event until the mid 1800s. Today's picnics range from grilling hotdogs and burgers and dishing up potato salad and baked beans, to dining at elegant picnic tables with gourmet food and appetizer spreads and perhaps a favorite wine. So popular are 21st-century picnics that some are based on specific themes.
So, you're planning a picnic, and you want everything to be perfect. Relax, picnics are casual affairs. Once you've set up the location with comfortable seating and enough picnic tables to accommodate everyone, the rest can be as easy as making a list, using your powers of delegation, and enforcing basic etiquette rules. Keep in mind that folding picnic tables provide extra dining space and are sturdy enough for serving buffet-style.
Festivities in the realm of nature always seem to trigger a voracious appetite. The splendid spread of treats signature of picnics serves to satiate that hunger in the most satisfying ways. For your next outdoor soiree, check out these tips and delectable recipes culled from our staff.
As the economy tightens and people are staying home more, outdoor entertainment is on the rise. Families and friends are gathering around picnic tables to share food and conversation at a fraction of the price it costs to dine out or entertain formally. Shorter vacations closer to home are proving to be more relaxing than lengthy excursions. Folding and portable picnic tables are facilitating family fun options in these money-challenged times.
Many of today's picnic tables need little or no maintenance to retain their beauty and dependability. Wood picnic tables have an unequaled beauty, but require a bit more care to ensure that the wood ages to perfection. A little common sense, and a bit of routine maintenance will keep any picnic table in top shape.
