Not only do these markets have delicious food, but many also have entertainment and provide a great opportunity to catch up with neighbors!

What is There to do in Chester County in the Summer?

Enjoy all that it has to offer by attending Friday Night Concert Series’ (every Friday this summer) at Chaddsford Winery. If you still haven’t gotten enough of the Brandywine Valley, head over to Longwood Gardens to experience their Summer Spectacular which showcases annual and perennial flowers. If you’re in the mood for great food and beer, then keep your calendars open for Victory Brewing’s 8^th Annual BrewBQ at the end of July – not much more to ask for!

Does the Main Line Have Great Summertime Activities?
