Local Spots I love

Local Spots I love Our Season With the Pennypack CSA We’ve been doing a CSA share with Pennypack Farm since June, and with the season winding down soon, it felt like the right time to share how it’s gone. How Our Share Works We split a 6 unit share with my sister, which turned out to be exactly the right amount. A CSA box comes […]
Local Spots I love A Perfect Day at Cherry Crest Adventure Farm We left the house early on Saturday and pulled into Cherry Crest Adventure Farm in Lancaster right as the gates opened. That early start turned out to be the best decision of the day. We beat the crowds, grabbed a great parking spot, and had first pick of everything before the lines started forming. Getting […]
Local Spots I love Christmas in July at a Union Game It was Christmas in July night at the Union game, sponsored by Patron, and every fan walked out with their own Union Christmas hat.

It turned out to be one of our favorite outings of the summer. What the Festival Is All About This event brought together […]
Local Spots I love Our First Trip to Brigantine, NJ (And Why It Won’t Be Our Last) We tried a new shore point this summer. After years of the same familiar spots, we spent a week in Brigantine, New Jersey. So here’s how it went. The North End Won Us Over Brigantine has a north end that stays quiet, even in the middle of summer. That means fewer crowds, more space to […]
Local Spots I love What a Few Days at Skytop Taught Me About Home We needed a break. So we packed up the car and headed to Skytop Lodge in the Poconos for a few days with the family. I am still thinking about it, so I figured it was time to share.Skytop Lodge sits in the Pocono Mountains, about two hours from Montgomery County. It is the kind […]
Local Spots I love FIFA Fan Fest at Lemon Hill: Everything Montgomery County Families Need to Know Before They Go I will be honest with you. When we decided to take the kids to the FIFA Fan Fest at Lemon Hill in Philadelphia I was not sure what to expect. I knew it was going to be fun. I did not know it was going to be one of those days we talk about for […]
