A NOTE FROM FIG
Celebrating small town hospitality. C A N I T E L L YO U what I love most about Kennett Square? The small town hospitality that lingers everywhere you go. I can walk into Talula’s and find that someone will make room at their table for me to work. Or be greeted at Marché with a big smile and a question about how my family is doing. You won’t find a kinder or friendlier staff than at The Country Butcher. This is why I have really enjoyed curating this, our hospitality-themed issue. In this issue, we’re showcasing the best that Kennett Square brings to the table—both around town and in the home. Whether you need a caterer for a party or want to design a custom piece of furniture that makes your home unique, it’s all here.
At Fig, we believe in the power of creative communication to give voice and vision to this town that we love. We are a lookbook that creatively highlights the people and businesses that make Kennett Square so special. We hope you enjoy this Spring issue which tells a story of our welcoming and talented community. As always, I consider it a privilege to work with the business owners and community leaders you’ll find among these pages. Cheers, BRIANNA CARLISLE & THE FIG INDUSTRIES TEAM

Deanna Johnson & Liz Carter, Founders
Fresh Face: Marché S T E P P I N G I N T O Marché is like visiting a good friend’s home—a friend who happens to have exquisite taste. “One of our biggest compliments is when people say, ‘It feels really good in here...” says Deanna Johnson, who co-founded the store with Liz Carter. “They know something is happening here, and they want us to make it happen for them, too.” The concept of the new lifestyle goods boutique is completely unique to Kennett Square. Marché carries furniture, linens, home décor,
women’s clothing, and accessories. The owners see Marché as a place of discovery, where customers will encounter fresh, beautiful items. In this boutique setting, shoppers can expect a personalized experience. Liz says that she and Deanna enjoy helping customers step out of their comfort zone and discover new styles among the attainable selection of comfortably elegant and effortless clothing. On the home side, the merchants strive to curate a selection of eclectic goods sure to inspire any shopper.
Deanna, an interior designer, lends her expertise to help customers find just the right pieces for their home. “We hope we can touch everyone’s life in some way,” Deanna says. In addition to the seasonally inspired assortment of home décor and furnishings, Marché will soon offer a design resource center to suit even the most specific tastes. The studio will facilitate the needs of home owners with interior design services and custom order items as well as sales to the trades for local interior design professionals.

AUTHENTIC Creating authentic community in Kennett Square. Dan & Dorothy Boxler, Owners
Authentic: Country Butcher WHEN DAN AND DOROTHY Boxler opened up the Country Butcher in 1982, they knew that they wanted to create a business of high-quality food items. Little did they know that they were also creating a community. The Country Butcher carries prime cuts of meat, prepared foods, gourmet dry goods, artisan cheeses, and pastry items in the sit-down café. The store leads you from one culinary experience to the next. One customer compared it to “the Tiffany’s of the food market.” But it’s not just food that makes their
14
customers so loyal; it’s also relationship. Creating a kind, welcoming environment has always been a top priority. “People come into the store and feel that they are a part of it,” says Dan. Dan and Dorothy opened the store one month after their wedding, 35 years ago. They’ve always strived to keep a good work-life balance, maintaining hours that were conducive to giving them quality time as they raised their two sons, and now as they pursue their artistic interests. Dorothy is a painter, and Dan welds sculptures from found objects.

Over the years, the Boxlers have resisted the pressure all retailers feel to be open more hours. “You can’t have money make all your decisions for you,” says Dan. This benefits not only them, but also their employees. Their customers have shown great support of the Boxlers, not only professionally, but also personally. “Customers feel the warmth,” says Dorothy, “but we do, too. It’s reciprocated.” But then, that’s what community is.

Recreational features include three miles of picturesque compacted stone walking trails, basketball, tennis and sand volleyball courts, three children’s playgrounds, a woodland disc golf course and athletic fields.

The days are getting longer, the air is getting warmer, and the new season brings many reasons to celebrate; from emotional graduations that remind us of a hopeful future, to colorful Easter egg hunts that remind us of simple childhood joy. From heartfelt toasts to the bride & groom, to showering love on the mother-to-be— Kennett Square is a small town with big reasons to party. In this town, you'll find special gatherings happening everywhere. Some are happening at Talula's Table on a Saturday night. Some are taking place at a home on Magnolia Street on a Sunday afternoon. Kennett is easy-going and inviting. Hospitable. You'll probably find a few tables of varying heights pulled together to fit in those extra unexpected guests. A few mismatched chairs are pulled up to the table and kids are squished together on a piano bench. True hospitality means you'll always make room for more. Here are some simple but special ways to create a spring-inspired gathering with friends and loved ones sourced entirely from Kennett Square. From food to decor, the following guide will inspire you to create your own hospitable celebration this spring.

Hillard Silman Aortic Valve Repair
“Ever since I was diagnosed with congenital heart disease, even the lightest exercise felt like an uphill battle. I knew I needed surgery to repair my aortic valve. From surgery to rehab, my entire experience at the Heart Valve Center at Chester County Hospital was top notch, and my road to recovery was faster than I ever expected. My life, in gear and feeling great, is worth Penn Medicine.�
H E A R T VALV E CEN TER AT CH ESTER CO U N TY H O SP I TA L GIVES NEW OPTIONS TO OUR COMMUNITY Everyone hopes for a long life. But as we age, our risk for heart disease increases. Valves of the heart can wear out over time, affecting your quality of life. As part of Penn Medicine, we provide singlecenter access for nearly every disorder affecting the cardiac valves including combined procedures and valve-sparing procedures. This means the most advanced catheter based procedures, including Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement, are available to you. TAVR is a revolutionary treatment for patients who aren’t candidates for traditional open-heart surgery due to their age or other major medical conditions. If you or someone you love suffers from heart disease, never settle for anything less than the best care. Chester County Hospital provides patient-focused care for a full spectrum of cardiovascular conditions: • Arrhythmia
• Heart Disease
• Cardiomyopathy
• Hypertension
• Coronary Artery Disease
• Vascular Disease
• Congestive Heart Failure

Follow your passion A D V I C E O F T E N H E A R D though rarely followed. But Greg Pilotti did just that. In his fourth year of college, he discovered his true passion—furniture making—and shifted gears entirely. He scrapped a degree in architecture to become a trained furniture maker.
He’s been steadily growing the business and recruiting skilled craftsmen to join his team since. Pilotti’s crew of young, yet experienced craftsmen are passionate about producing the highest quality custom furniture. Simply put, they love what they do.
Four years ago, while completing his education in the trade, he opened his own shop, Greg Pilotti Furniture Makers.
The shop offers personal service throughout the custom design process with in-house design and drawing.

4069 LOWER VALLEY ROAD, PARKESBURG 484.764.6956 GPFURNITUREMAKER.COM
The scope of work includes custom kitchen cabinetry, built-in cabinetry, custom furniture and reproduction pieces. Every piece is personally built by one craftsman with locally sourced materials. “We still use our hands and traditional furniture making techniques,” Pilotti says. “We have great respect for the craft.”
