Doylestown is an energetic town— people always seem to be moving. Small shops, cafes, restaurants and offices have a steady flow of people going in and out. But when spring arrives, turning into summer, the outside gait is changed. The swiftness gives in to a saunter. The outdoor pace slows down, so that we can look at the flowers and the trees, stroll through parks and breathe in the scents of this marvelous vivification happening all around us. As a tribute to this colorful awakening, Bobby Waite’s photos of artists painting outdoors, bright street views, and all the colors of Doylestown are featured in our Spring/Summer 2023 issue of Doylestown Town & Country in his photo essay, “Vividly Colorful Doylestown.”

A highly skilled designer Lisa Griffiths of Bella Casa Interior Designs took writer Beth Buxbaum on a tour of a Doylestown farmhouse where Lisa in collaboration with Baur Construction updated the living space and improved the interior flow. Beth Buxbaum details this beautiful transformation in “Designing Interior Flow.”

In our Spring/Summer issue we interview a Doylestown artist, a couple of Doylestown promoters, and we feature two area restaurants, write profiles on a conservationist, an orthodontist, a chef, a cuisine instructor and the founder of Solful Living. We take you around town and show you the places to go and things to do in Doylestown this spring and summer.

So, now that winter is over and spring and summer is on the horizon, it is time to walk slowly though town, taking in all the beauty, scents and sounds with a slower gait. We hope that Doylestown Town & Country will be with you as a friend who walks beside you, pointing out what an amazing town Doylestown is this time of year.
