JJune is fun time — in nearby towns and cities, in your backyard or gardens, with a book or glass of wine, at a barbecue. Let County Lines be your guide.
Out come dining tables, umbrellas, planters and partitions. It’s time for another Open Air Market in West Chester. Learn more in Cara Corridoni’s “Strolling Through Summer on West Chester’s Gay Street.”
Find reasons to visit Wilmington this summer and learn a little history in Ed Malet’s “Wilmington’s Riverfront” — from Native American hunting grounds to Swedish fur-trading colony to 20th-century shipbuilding powerhouse to today’s assortment of restaurants, museums and other amusements.
Interested in armchair summer travel? In “Read Your Way Through the UK,” Shelley Laurence of Main Point Books recommends a grand tour.
Or stay at home, so long as your backyard is summer-ready. Shannon Montgomery’s “Beautiful Backyards” has inspiration for your outdoor oasis. Pools, decks, patios, gardens, outdoor kitchens, lighting. Plus an Outdoor Oasis Resource Guide.
Breathe deeply, says Carol Metzker. “Everything’s Coming Up Roses …” and lavender, peonies, dahlias and zinnias. She’s taking in the sensory spectacle of Chester County’s flower farms where you can PIY (pick it yourself). And in “Native Plants for Resilient Gardens,” Stephanie Kuniholm of Jenkins Arboretum advises about creating beautiful, tough, stress-free gardens. Birds, insects and wildlife will thrive in this landscape!
Marci Tomassone’s “Summer Dining Guide” highlights great restaurants in County Lines country. Look for the Best of the Best stars, plus some photos in our “Best of the Best Photo Recap.” Still hungry? Brandywine Table’s Courtney Diener-Stokes writes “Barbecue at Home with Michael Falcone,” and shares specialty sauces: white Korean BBQ sauce, bourbon BBQ sauce, BBQ glaze. Pair that with Jessica Roberts’ “Wine Pairings for Picnics, Pools and Barbecues.” A perfect part of summer. And as always, we have the Best Local Events and plenty of Family Fun.
Thank you for reading.
