Top 10 Things to Do in Kennett Square, PA
2. Check out the studio and gallery of artist and friend Carol Lesher just around the corner. We met through our sons when I walked into her house to pick up Nate. I saw a yoga mat on the floor and a beautiful painting over her mantel (her work) and knew I had met a new friend.

Owner and Chef Brett Hulbert of Portobellos with his partner Sandy visit Cathy of The Mushroom Cap to order some mushrooms for their restaurant. |
5. Order dinner from Portabellos (did I mention that Kennett Square is the Mushroom Capital of The World?) The restaurant is across the street from Flickerwood and a server will deliver your food along with a linen table cloth, ceramic plates china and silver utensils.
6. Shop at Eco Boutique– the shop with a conscience, and often, an art show. I have shown my Walks thru Life: Shoe Portraits there.
7. Coffee at Talula’s Table, a Kennett Square staple- or the newer and very hip Philter. Each with it’s cool decor- and more art to see.

If you need to walk all this off, Longwood Gardens just up Route 1 never disappoints, and Anson B. Nixon Park is right down the street with their walking trails, disc golf, courts and fields and a stage for summer performances.
