PUB LISH ER’S NOTE

SEPTEMBER IS HERE in all her

glory, bringing with her the lingering warmth of August along with the return of our fall routines. It often takes a little time to ease back into the rhythm of school, work, and packed schedules—but there’s always something exciting about the promise of a new season and the beauty it brings.

In this first fall issue, we’re celebrating the people, places, and things that make this time of year so special in our community—thriving local businesses, time well spent on the golf course, and a nursery school filled with wonder and the big dreams of our littlest residents.

Most of us have driven along Taylorsville Road and noticed the Baldwin Publishing sign—but if you haven’t had the chance to meet Toni Donina, you’re in for a treat. From reporter to powerhouse publisher, Toni built a massive health and wellness digital content library

LOCAL PULSE FIND PEACE IN BUTTERFLY GARDEN On July 15, 2023, seven people lost their lives in a flash flood in Upper Makefield Township. In memory of those seven people and in appreciation of the hundreds of first responders who rose to the occasion to save lives and bring the lost home, Upper Makefield Township created a Memorial Butterfly Garden within Brownsburg Park, located off River Road. Planning for the garden was a collaborative effort between Upper Makefield Township officials, police officers, the victims’ families, and the staff at Seasons Garden Center.

The butterfly garden features four benches dedicated to the four families that lost loved ones in the flood. Just inside the front gate is a plaque thanking the more than 100 first responders and search-and-rescue team members who assisted in the rescue operation. All trails lead to a water fountain in the center of a heart-shaped feature. The garden was designed to offer a succession of blooms, which allows for alternating plants to show color from early spring through fall. The garden has been certified and registered as a Monarch Waystation.

SPEND SOME TIME ON THE FARM Learn all about life on the Thompson-Neely Farmstead, from animal care to structure maintenance to harvesting and preserving. This living history program, held on September 26, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at Washington Crossing Historic Park, will cover a task that normally would be performed on the farm, so that you can see and experience what life was like for many people in the years surrounding the Revolution.

Giving Back to the Community Braun Taylor talks about his love for Upper Makefield and how being on the Board of Supervisors allows him to better his town.

Why did you decide to run for the Board of Supervisors?

I have lived in Upper Makefield my whole life, except for shorts stints away for college and law school. My grandparents moved to Upper Makefield years before I was born and brought the rest of us here. Upper Makefield, in every sense of the word, is home for my family.

I decided to run for supervisor because I really want to give back and contribute something positive to a community I love.

Going into this job, I saw an opportunity to preserve the work that has been done to make Upper Makefield what it is today, and to strategize where the township is going next. I see many ways to make Washington Crossing a very special area given its historical significance and location. I see a continued focus to preserve open space, and I would like to work on increased recreational amenities for the community.

INTERVIEW WITH

BRAUN TAYLOR BRAUN TAYLOR was elected to the Upper Makefield Board of Supervisors in November 2023 and took office in January 2024. He is an attorney with a practice that focuses on banking, public and private financing, transactional real estate, and condominium and homeowners association matters. He represents various municipalities and municipal authorities in Montgomery and Chester counties. He is also a licensed Realtor in Pennsylvania. Currently, Taylor resides in Washington Crossing with his partner, Eddie, and two poodles, Tula and Bennett. Here, he shares some insights on his work with the community and what Upper Makefield means to him.

What do you find most rewarding about working with the Board of Supervisors and the community?

The most rewarding part of being a supervisor is having the privilege to meet so many people in the township, to hear what concerns them, and to hear what they love about our township. It was truly heartwarming knocking on so many doors and receiving a warm welcome and a chance to make a connection with a neighbor when I was campaigning. The support of the community was and continues to be a tremendous honor. I know all of the supervisors have a strong connection to our community and all care deeply about the township. It is equally as rewarding to take the ideas I heard from people all around the township and to put them into action by working alongside the rest of the board on our various initiatives.

Upper Makefield Township is hosting a Community Day on September 20.

What can residents expect, and why is this important?

Our first Community Day was great last year, and we are looking forward to it being even better this year. We will have our public works and fire apparatus out in the park for “touch-atruck,” our various volunteers will be at tables to talk about the work they do in the township, there will be all kinds of activities and entertainment for all ages, and our newly dedicated memorial butterfly garden will be on display.

Community Day is the perfect time to learn about the township, to meet your neighbors, to learn how to get involved, and to enjoy the beauty of our parks.

elementary school than Sol Feinstone.

Growing up surrounded by natural beauty, open space, and unapparelled historical significance is an experience I would not trade for anything.

Why is Upper Makefield Township a great place to raise a family?

I know Upper Makefield is a great place to raise a family because I lived the experience of growing up here. You would be hard-pressed to find a better

What’s your favorite thing to do in Upper Makefield?

I love running or riding my bike along the canal or in our parks. I’ve also been known to enjoy a Friday night dinner at Bowman’s Tavern and other local spots.

What is a fun fact people may be surprised to know about you?

When I am not at Board of Supervisors meetings or working, you’ll often find me at home gardening, on a ladder painting, redesigning a room or starting a new project, or just enjoying my back porch. We bought a fixer-upper three years ago, and it has been my passion project ever since.

HOM E FRONT

A Season of Change Mild temperatures make fall an ideal time for exterior home projects.

BY SHIRLEY CHACON

AS THE SUMMER heat fades and the cool, crisp air of fall settles in, many homeowners in Upper Makefield start turning their attention to their homes. Fall is more than just a beautiful season; it’s also one of the most practical times to take care of certain home improvements that will protect your property through the winter and beyond.

One of the most important areas to focus on in the fall is your roof and gutter system. After a season of heavy summer storms, roofs often develop minor damage—loose shingles, small leaks, or worn flashing—that can lead to big problems if not addressed before winter.

Gutters also need attention this time of year, especially as leaves begin to fall.

A clean, well-functioning gutter system helps prevent water from pooling around your foundation or forming ice dams once the temperatures drop.

Another smart fall project is updating or inspecting your home’s siding. Siding not only contributes to curb appeal; it also acts as a protective layer that keeps your home insulated and dry. Small cracks or gaps can let moisture in, which can become a bigger issue in freezing conditions.

When replacing siding this time of year, many homeowners choose fall-friendly colors such as warm neutrals and earth tones.

The main reason fall is ideal for these types of renovations is timing.

Moderate weather allows for more efficient work and helps materials perform at their best during installation.

Addressing maintenance

now gives homeowners peace of mind heading into the harsher months, knowing their home is ready to handle heavy rain, wind, or snow.

Taking a proactive approach each fall, by inspecting your roof, clearing gutters, and checking siding, can extend the life of your home’s exterior and prevent costly repairs down the road. It’s one of the best ways to protect your investment and enjoy the season knowing your home is ready for whatever winter brings.

Shirley Chacon is the owner of Premier Home Renovations, helping Upper Makefield and surrounding towns with roofing, siding, and gutter projects that preserve the quality and enhance the beauty of every home.

She lives in Upper Makefield with her family and loves being part of the community she serves.

Recipe for Success

A

BY DARI KOTZKER

ADAPTABILITY AND FLEXIBILITY are two skills that have been an integral part of Toni Donina’s career in publishing. These important attributes have helped to shape her professional life from her beginnings as a journalist for The Associated Press to her current roles of Baldwin Publishing CEO and publisher. After college, Donina worked for 30 years in journalism, with time spent as a war correspondent in the Middle East and South Africa.

“I loved writing, I loved reporting, I loved the news—especially international news,” she says. “You never knew what was going to happen.

It was so interesting.”

In the late 1980s, Donina was living and reporting in South Africa for CBS News with her then husband and two young children when the area was becoming more dangerous. They decided to move back to the United States, to the Philadelphia area, and eventually settled in Upper Makefield Township, where she has lived for close to 40 years.

In addition to the move, Donina decided to make a career change so she could spend more time with her children. She was interested in health care because it was an active time in the pharmaceutical industry. After working for a few pharmaceutical marketing companies in the 1990s, she decided to build something of her own. She launched an eight-page newsletter focusing on women’s health. After quickly selling the concept to three Bucks County hospitals, her new company, Baldwin Publishing, was officially in business.

Her company would write the articles

and handle the printing and mailing for the health care institutions.

“I found people in health care were the best people to work for,” Donina says. “After the cutthroat news industry, I went to work with a very appreciative, sophisticated group of people who had a great product to sell—good health. It came together pretty quickly, and I thought, ‘This is my niche.’”

TRANSITIONING TO ONLINE The business grew, and Donina married Hal Pitkow, a lawyer from Washington Crossing. Pitkow helped her expand Baldwin Publishing, and together they have worked with almost every hospital in the United States.

Of course, with growth comes change. Around 2000, Donina realized hospitals were investing in websites, so she made the decision to go digital.

SEPTEMBER 2025 |

14-17 UPM_Publishing_0925_Final.indd 15

15 8/18/25 11:16 AM

At this point, the company had produced articles for almost 10 years and had a huge archive of original health and wellness content. They built a content management system to house all of their articles, along with technology that allowed them to integrate the newsletters.

“We think of ourselves as The Associated Press for health news,” Donina says. “We will go to a medical organization, create all the content for them, and then they will put it on their website and social media if they want. We can also produce an online newsletter for them. We still do some print newsletters, but for the most part, everything we do is digital.”

A DELICIOUS DISCOVERY Dating back to when the newsletters were in print, the company would always feature a healthy recipe, and hospitals would receive positive feedback from readers. As they transitioned to a digital format, recipes became an important part of the content package. Using Google Analytics, Donina was stunned to discover that among thousands of content articles across more than 50 different websites, the recipes were among the Top 3 clicked articles on every website.

During the pandemic, Donina recognized that her company should draw on this popularity and build a direct-to-consumer

older population, which tends to start thinking about their diets differently as they age.

“People want healthy food to taste good, and they want it to be easy, so we’re always looking at data and making decisions on what we should be cooking,” Donina says.

“All recipes go through a dietitian who decides if we should tag it low sodium, heart healthy, or gluten free. High-protein diets are huge for people who take GLP-1 weight loss medication. We try to create recipes for all different healthy diets.”

website that incorporated the more than 20 years of healthy recipes they had developed, along with new ones.

Two years ago, Baldwin Publishing launched Health eCooks, which offers free recipes without any subscription.

To help manage the site, Donina brought on graphic artist and recipe content creator Adam Fisher as food and digital content editor. “People want to eat healthy, but some people get turned off by healthy food,” Fisher says. “How can we change that mindset?

We’re trying to pinpoint our target audience.”

Currently, the site has a niche of 25- to 45-year-olds who want to cook healthy, according to Fisher.

They are also trying to target the

PUT TO THE TEST With the growth of this endeavor, Baldwin Publishing moved to a larger building in Washington Crossing 11 years ago, where they have test kitchens to try out recipes.

They also make instructional videos and professionally photograph all the meals. Most of the recipes are developed by professional chefs and Fisher, but not all of them reach the website. In fact, 33 percent of them get rejected. Donina and her team taste test the final product. If it doesn’t taste the way people would expect it to, or if it takes too long to make, it’s back to the drawing board.

When the final product does pass the test, Fisher says it’s an adrenaline rush. “It’s awesome,” he says. “Just recently we made corn pudding. I was floored by it. We posted it on the site and social media, and people were using the recipe and engaging with us. It’s the most exciting part when we finally hit.”

Although the goal for healthy eating is year-round, Donina says she generally sees web traffic increase in September, when summer ends, kids are back to school, and the weather cools off. If you’re not a big cook, she says this is the best time to learn, because

everyone is home and wants to eat.

As for the future, Donina plans to keep Health eCooks free to the public with the continued support of advertisers and the potential of sponsorships.

“I made the right decision 35 years ago to go into health care media,” she says. “We’ve had a big impact on the way people take care of themselves and the way they eat. If you go to a website, try a recipe, and have it work, you’ll come back—and that’s what we’re finding. This has all been worth it, and I will do this for as long as I can.”

BY DARI KOTZKER

WHETHER IT’S EARLY morning, noon, or night on a warm summer day or chilly afternoon, you can almost always see golfers teeing up at Jericho National Golf Club. However, this course offers more than just golf. The scenic and serene location is filled with players of all levels who share a love of the game, the course, and their community.

In 1985, successful businessman and philanthropist Nick Karabots purchased a large tract of land on Brownsburg Road. The rolling hills and incredible vistas are what appealed to him. Never having been to a golf course—or played golf for that matter—he was convinced by business associates to build a course on a portion of the land. After meeting with several famed golf course designers, Dr. Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry were selected to create Jericho National Golf Club, which opened in 1999.

IF YOU BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME Upper Makefield resident Glenn McCallister’s construction company was hired to do all the bulk and initial dirt work at the site. McCallister and his brother/business partner Ed McCallister had no prior experience working on golf courses, but due to their success with this one, they went on to build six more.

“It was all new to me,” Glenn McCallister says. “I didn’t even know the game of golf, but my brother was a golfer. Everything we did in our business was flat and level for development work, where here, they were looking for all kinds of contours and shapes. It was really neat. We learned quickly, and it was spectacular to build the first golf course in our community and for it to turn out so well. And now, I play golf, too.”

Jericho National Golf Club Head Professional and Director of Golf James Rodney “Rod” Granger was hired in 2000. He says the draw to the club is its exceptional golf course design and the friendly culture that’s been instilled among its staff and members.

“Every hole is unique, and you don’t get bored playing,” he says. “There’s a challenge in the design, there’s a challenge on every hole of some sort.

It’s very well thought out.”

When joining Jericho National Golf Club, the main goal is to learn and play golf, but there is also a social aspect among its members. There is a restaurant and a ballroom for weddings and parties, and opportunities for children of members to experience the course.

MEMBERS REMEMBER The club currently has 400 members, and many founding members still play.

Upper Makefield Township resident George Cino, who has lived in the area since 1975, remembers the excitement when the club first opened and that there was only a trailer before the clubhouse was built five years later.

In fact, his daughter was the second wedding ever to be held at the club.

When Cino joined, he had no prior golf experience and honed his skills on the course. At 84 years old, he still can be seen multiple days a week walking to each hole for exercise and enjoying this special place.

“I find Jericho to be very nice, very challenging, and the aesthetics are so nice with rolling hills and valleys,” he says. “It’s very picturesque. It feels like you’re playing golf out in the country.

When I go to Jericho, the people make you feel like you’re part of a family.”

Although there is a waitlist to join the club, new members are added every year. Upper Makefield resident Ryan Hayward moved to the area in 2014 with his family, and one of the reasons he wanted to live nearby was so that he could be close to the course.

“It’s a great golf course,” he says.

“It’s well-run, it’s challenging some days, not too hard other days. “It’s also undoubtedly the best group of people.

It’s been life-changing in terms of who I spend time with. I’ve found the most enjoyable thing is who you play with first. Where you play and how you play is a distant second and third.”

Founding member Teresa Roberts has many fond memories with her family at the club and feels right at home.

people here who still included me in golf,” she says. “I just think it’s a positive place to be, it’s a happy place when you are here.”

UP FOR THE CHALLENGE With more than 25 years of being an integral part of the community, Jericho National Golf Club has been a popular venue for many fundraisers and corporate outings. It continues to maintain a strong reputation for its captivating course and respectful culture among its membership.

“I’m on the advisory board for the charitable organization First Tee of Greater Philadelphia, which is an advocacy group that teaches kids to be good human beings through the game of golf,” Hayward says. “We had a club drive, and the golf course and members were so supportive.”

Roberts, who has grown from novice golfer to competing in Women’s Golf Association of Philadelphia (WGAP) team matches, would love for more women to join the club. She has worked with the WGAP to motivate junior girls to play the game.

“The game can be intimidating, so you encourage them that you’re

playing against yourself and nobody else,” she says. “You just want them to get better and to try it again.

When I started, I could hit the ball every once in a while but was never consistent until I practiced more and played more.”

Every year, Jericho National Golf Club hosts 18 to 20 tournaments with varying degrees of difficulty within the membership. It also holds a club championship, senior championship, and women’s championship. The club is part of the Golf Association of Philadelphia (GAP) and has hosted tournaments for the organization every other year. Granger says they’ve slowly been building their brand, and this past spring they held a U.S. Open qualifier. Members who came out to watch said they felt a sense of pride.

ON PAR WITH THE COMMUNITY Granger says many people are introduced to golf by a parent at a young age—that’s how he became involved. On the flip side, many members acquire their expert skills as adults while playing at the club. No matter how they begin, most players agree that golf is not just about the

final score but about the lessons you learn along the way.

“It’s what you put into it, it’s the whole experience,” Granger says. “My dad said this game is the greatest game ever because you can play against yourself, you can play against the golf course, you can play against an opponent. It will madden you, it will humble you, and then the next hole, you’ll hit the greatest shot and feel like you’re the greatest player on the planet.”

While good shots and bad shots are a reality of golf, feeling welcome on a course no matter what is always important.

“At Jericho, nobody judges you on your ability to play the game,” Cino says. “You just have to be a nice person and you’ll fit in really well.”

For decades, young families have chosen a cooperative learning environment for their children’s first school experience.

BY DARI KOTZKER

P

PARENTS OF YOUNG children often hear the popular expression: “They grow up so fast, so enjoy every moment.” As that sentiment rings true for many, Crossing Cooperative Nursery School (CCNS) in Washington Crossing aims to make every second of a child’s early education something to savor by its parents, staff, and students.

In the 1900s, a little red schoolhouse was built in Washington Crossing and eventually donated to Council Rock school district. In 1958, Council Rock leased the historic building to a group of parents who wanted to have a cooperative nursery school. What makes it cooperative is that the parents take an active role in all aspects of the school, which fosters a collaborative

partnership between the families and staff. For over 50 years, CCNS has been home to countless families who have shared the same goal for their children.

“After I explain the cooperative structure of the school to parents on tours, they say they want to be involved, they want opportunities to come into the school and meet other families,” says CCNS Educational Director Stacey Keeler. “It’s a special community. It does require more time and volunteering, but you get a lot back.”

COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE When joining the school, each parent signs a cooperative commitment to take on a yearlong volunteer job, as well participate in a fundraising event

EARLY EDUCATION LESSONS Another integral part of the CCNS experience is the staff. The teachers are all certified and many joined the staff after their own children outgrew the nursery school. To prepare the students for elementary school, they have a “learn by play” philosophy. For example, one of the techniques used to enhance this experience is that the teachers choose different themes to get the students excited about what they’re learning.

“There is a way to work on literacy, math, and fine motor skills while

and a “Scrub Up,” which is a deep cleaning of all the toys. Some examples of volunteer jobs are becoming a board member, homeroom parent, or committee member. For dual working parents, there are many opportunities to help outside of the school day, such as in purchasing, data entry, finance, and landscaping and maintenance.

“One of the elements that attracted me was the cooperative commitment,” CCNS Board President Jessica Wuestkamp says. “I’m a full-time working parent but also a mom who grew up with a very involved mother, so it was important to me as a parent to show my kids both sides. You can have a career and be involved. I’ve loved every second of being on the board. I love the planning, the strategizing, and seeing through the execution of what we plan for the school.”

CCNS teacher and parent Michelle Djamoos was drawn to the school’s welcoming environment when she was looking for a preschool for her son. “My biggest thing was that I wanted him to have fun and enjoy going to school,” she says. “The parent and family involvement are such a great way to get a kid excited and feel supported as they start their journey into school.”

playing,” Djamoos says. “If my theme for the day is apples, we may set up a pretend apple orchard, cut an apple in half and explore how many seeds there are, or create an apple tree with pipe cleaners and Play-Doh. We’re trying to engage all different skills, but to them it feels like play.”

Keeler feels that kids learn best through play. “I always tell parents it doesn’t mean they’re not learning,” she says. “We build up their stamina for more traditional learning. We do all the curriculum goals that you would expect, but we’re doing it in a way where the kiddos are playing and not sitting at a desk for an extended amount of time.”

resident Thomas Coyne Jr. attended CCNS in the mid-1980s. When he was a student, Council Rock decided to sell the property, and a group of parents (including Coyne’s) got together and raised money to buy it. At that time, there wasn’t enough credit for the school to afford a loan, so Coyne’s parents, along with a few other families, co-signed the loan until the school could build enough credit to take over the loan.

With such strong ties to the school, Coyne chose to move back to this area with his family so his four kids could have the same positive experience he had at CCNS. “There are so many great friendships that I built going to this school that lasted me all the way through high school and beyond, and it prepared me to excel in Council Rock,” he says.

Coyne’s kids call CCNS “daddy’s school,” and he says it’s amazing that he gets to relive so many memories he had as a preschooler. The school is steeped in tradition, so he recalls activities that still take place today, such as walking along the school’s nature trail, parent mystery readers, and show and tell.

Coyne says his story is not unique and many former students followed the same path because they have such a deep connection to CCNS. This year,

his youngest child will graduate.

“When a parent is part of the school, they are like a co-owner,” he says.

“There’s a sense of responsibility and ownership to it. Many parents stay on the board after their children graduate to make sure the school continues to be a success. There are things my wife and I still want to do to help leave our mark on the school, so we will probably stick around.

CCNS Director of Operations Susan Burns loves the continued connection former families still have with the school. “One of the things I love about CCNS is when I run into alumni or families and they tell me what the school means to them,” she says.

“We have a lot of Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts who come back to donate their time and energy, and every year, high school graduates come by and take pictures on the front steps in their cap and gown.”

THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT Since CCNS is a nonprofit and doesn’t receive any state or federal funding, it’s solely supported by tuition and fundraising. There is a lot of emphasis on fundraising to help keep tuition affordable and to maintain and upgrade the building. Both parents and staff have emphasized how supportive

local businesses in Upper Makefield Township and surrounding areas have been of the school. With continued support from the community, as well as CCNS parents and staff, the school continues to be a staple of Washington Crossing.

“What I’ve seen from a lot of parents whose kids have graduated is that their relationships stay, and the friendships between the children stay,” Wuestkamp says. “The amazing, unique aspect of CCNS is that it doesn’t end when school ends. Those relationships are so organic and natural that they extend into other facets of life and are maintained.”

Keeler knows there is a balance in honoring tradition while remaining flexible to change with the times. “We are drenched in history, so you want to keep it the same, but you also have to grow and change with the times,” she says. “Over time, we have adapted, changed some course offerings, but people like the traditional preschool, and I think that’s what a lot of people are looking for when they come to us.”

MAKING

Connections The ever-changing world of Kimberly Ort comes to ArtWRKD Gallery.

BY ASHARA SHAPIRO

28 | UPPER MAKEFIELD 28-29 UPM_LocalArts_0925_Final.indd 28

8/18/25 11:27 AM

IN A WORLD where image often overshadows intention, artist Kimberly Ort—known professionally as Berly— creates work that pulses with raw humanity. Recently welcomed into the fold of ArtWRKD Gallery, Berly brings a deeply personal and evocative presence to the collective’s growing roster of contemporary artists.

A self-taught outsider artist, Berly’s work is unfiltered by academic tradition and instead shaped by lived experience, deep introspection, and emotional honesty. Her pieces don’t ask for permission—they exist boldly and unapologetically, just as she does.

PERSONAL TOUCH “My goal within each painting is to tap into whatever emotion I am feeling at that time and allow that to drive the mood of the figure I am depicting,” Berly says. “My end goal is for my audience to relate to my art on a very personal level.”

That desire for connection underpins everything she creates. Originally finding her footing in the art world through custom pet portraits, Berly’s journey has evolved dramatically since she first answered her “supernatural calling” around 2005. Her current work—bold, abstract figurative pieces created with torn papers, paint, and charcoal—explores the complexities of identity and emotion. The addition of mixed media adds texture both visual and emotional, layering memory and presence into each piece.

There’s a vulnerability in her practice that doesn’t shy away from pain or joy.

It reflects an artist grounded not only in craft, but in compassion.

“I genuinely have a need and a longing to connect with other people, as many of us have similar paths in how we live our lives and what we go through emotionally,” she says.

ALWAYS EVOLVING As Berly steps into representation at ArtWRKD, she joins a community that reflects many of the values she

holds dear: collaboration, creative freedom, and a commitment to equity.

It’s a natural pairing for an artist who describes herself as “an open-minded, accepting, and empathetic person who wants to be free to explore and have stability at the same time.”

Berly’s art is not static. It’s a living thing—growing as she grows, responding to the world with the kind of emotional intelligence and clarity that many strive for but few master.

“I will always be an evolving artist and human being,” she says. “And the most important thing to me—and my family and those I want to surround myself with on this fast-moving journey we call life—is equality for all people.”

With her voice and vision now amplified through ArtWRKD Gallery, Berly’s evolving journey is one to watch—heart first, always.

Ashara Shapiro is Gallerist and Curator of ArtWRKD, located at 128 South State St. in Newtown. The art consortium has a mission for discovering, fostering, and sharing original work by emerging artists through its workshop and exhibition space.

You never know what flora and fauna you’ll find, depending on the season. Fall is one of the best times to walk through the meadow with native fall plants ablaze with color.

Brandt enjoys photographing all the beauty of Bucks County including landscapes, birds, wildlife, and flowers.
