THE SPRING ISSUE LOCAL BEAUTIES GUIDE TO GREAT SPRING FESTIVALS SPRING BRINGS LOCAL MARKET TO TOWN

Lifestyle Letter

Spring into April

APRIL 2017

hen we think about the spring season, we think about many things. We think about beautiful blooming flowers and freshly cut grass. About warmer weather, longer days and the beautiful melodies of songbirds back from their winter migrations. When we think about spring, we think about renewal and freshness. And that’s what we were thinking about when we were putting together this spring farm-to-table issue of Hendersonville Lifestyle. We were thinking about perusing the local farmers markets and finding the best inseason produce—apricots, asparagus, broccoli, honeydew, oranges, pineapple and strawberries, to name a few.

We were thinking about honey, about edible flowers to bring the beautiful colors of spring to your table, about refreshing spring looks and about all the locally sourced goods this season has to offer. So as you make your way around Hendersonville this season, breathe in a plethora of fresh air. Enjoy the sun’s warmth, the clouds’ showers, the bustling of people and the rejuvenation spring brings after a long winter. May you find the contents of these pages as renewing and refreshing as we find this time of year.

CITY OF HENDERSONVILLE’S STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS The mayor and board of aldermen of Hendersonville have begun a process to plan for the future of the city. The planning process is named Hendersonville Horizons and a steering committee has been appointed. The first step in the process is to conduct a survey of residents. “Hendersonville Horizons gives our citizens the opportunity to be involved in the future of our city, and I encourage all residents to complete the survey,” Mayor Jamie Clary says.

HELPING FAMILIES PREPARE FOR AND NAVIGATE TIMES OF NEED

ARTICLE ALLISON WINDOM | PHOTOGRAPHY LYNN BOWLES

om and Barbara Bowers are truly in a family business—in every sense of the word. The couple operates the Hendersonville location

of Austin and Bell Funeral Home, which opened its doors in April 2016. Tom grew up around the funeral home business, learning as he worked alongside his uncle in high school. Now, he and his wife are carrying on his family legacy and continually serving new families in the Hendersonville community. Tom and Barbara are committed to educating families not only right after the death of a loved one but also long before. In today’s society, preplanning of funeral arrangements is becoming more common. Planning long before the need arises can certainly ease the burden on the family of a loved one. If no previous plans have been made, it creates even more stress during the already difficult time of a loved one's passing. Preplanning and setting up payments ahead of time will ease the burden on your family members and leave them with a wonderful gift of less worry surrounding funeral arrangements and final wishes.

“We have never heard anyone say ‘I wish he (or she) had not made any decisions about her funeral arrangements and left it for me to do,’” Barbara says. “It never fails that (family members) realize what a tremendous gift of love they just received.” While Tom and Barbara strive to create the best possible experience for families they work with after the death of a loved one, they also want to educate those they work with—even if they are not planning a funeral. They often meet with families who have questions about cremation and other arrangements. To help provide answers and education, Austin and Bell will host seminars—with no selling involved—throughout 2017. Topics will include preplanning, cremation, taking care of your parents, veterans benefits, getting your affairs in order and many others. “We see far too many families who are confused and unprepared,” Barbara says. “We want to help them feel better about anything that they have questions about.” Whether it’s planning and proactive education, or support in a time of need, Tom and Barbara Bowers are committed to serving the families of Hendersonville through their work at Austin and Bell Funeral Home. 18

Spring Brings Local Market to Town

he Hendersonville Farmers Market will begin its ninth season this coming spring. Located at 300 Indian Lake Blvd., the farmers market brings together local vendors in a fun and vibrant atmosphere. Cheryl Puryear, market manager, says the location of the market at The Streets of Indian Lake mall serves as a great location with easy access, parking and other amenities close by. Puryear has been the market manager since 2012 and says the upcoming market will be her sixth season. “I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the local farmers, artisan, craft and small-business vendors over the years, as well as the customers,” she says. Puryear shared several of the original vendors will be returning for this season’s market, but there will also be new participants as well. The majority of vendors at the market are located in Middle Tennessee, but according to Puryear, there are a few exceptions. The Peach Truck comes from Georgia; Virgin Bay Seafood get their wild-caught salmon from Alaska but are local to Tennessee; and Laurel Mountain Family Farm which provides beef, veggies, goat’s milk soap, pork and bread hails from Crossville, Tennessee, located two hours east of Hendersonville. From Farm-To-Table ARTICLE PAIGE SWOPE

“Our farm vendors include longtime farmers, but the trend is that more professionals in other areas are either retiring to become farmers, completely changing their lifestyles to take up farming or are adding part-time farming to embrace a healthier lifestyle for themselves and their families,” she says, explaining why she believes the farmers market has been such a success and why vendors keep coming back every year. She also notes people are choosing to raise their own food because of the concern over industrial farming and the increased awareness of healthy eating. By raising their own meats and growing their own produce, farmers can ensure the food they are selling is as clean and healthy as possible. CONTINUED > April 2017 | Hendersonville Lifestyle

The Streets of Indian Lake website, StreetsOfIndianLake.com, and social media pages also relay market information to the community. When asked what she would like to do with the market in the future, Puryear has a few ideas. “I would like to add more music, healthy food preparation and cooking demonstrations, and more educational activities for kids and families to familiarize them with what goes into farming, to help healthy living take root in their lives.” The market runs from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. every Saturday of the month starting May 20 and ending September 30. 26

BEAUTIES ARTICLE JACKIE MEWBOURNE

s our little bedroom community of Hendersonville grows, so does our options for excellence in hair and beauty services. There is

no need to drive to Nashville anymore for your routine hair care or even to get dolled up for that special event. There is talent right under your noses, just a hop, skip and jump from your front door. One stunning duo is tucked away in a rustic glam corner of the Bellezza Salon in Glenbrook. Russha Sage and Meagan Holt are two blonde bombshells with a list of beauty services that can get you ready to face the world—or even—with confidence. Both stylists offer full-service treatments including color, cut, blowouts, styling and balayage techniques, a hot new hair trend that creates natural looking highlights. As a bonus, Holt offers full makeup application for your special events. The salon is a one-stop shop for all your beauty needs. I sat down with both girls to talk hair and beauty trends in their new location and got to see them in action as they worked their magic. Sage educated me on the new hair trends for spring—think beachy waves, high ponytails and blunt cuts—as well as her favorite products. She is a big supporter and believer in Moroccanoil products and highlighted her picks for what’s hot in hair.

Hendersonville Lifestyle | April 2017

1. The Moroccanoil Dry Texture Spray gives volume and texture to beachy waves. Use this spray in tandem with the Beach Wave Mousse for extra texture and hold. 2. The Moroccanoil Smoothing Lotion is perfect for those sleek one length blunt cuts. This product has a guaranteed 72-hour hold on those luscious locks and will keep your hair free from flyaways during those humid and rainy spring days. Enhance your results using the Smoothing Shampoo and Conditioner. 3. The Moroccan Gold Glimmer Shine spray is a dream come true for all you blondes. As we lighten our locks this spring, this product will keep your hair from getting dull and lackluster and will have it beaming with radiance. All products are available at their salon inside Bellezza. Holt is not only is a master of hair; she can rock a makeover as well. We talked makeup trends and a few of her favorite products that she likes to use on clients. Spring trends include peach and blush tones, matte lips, shine—think glowy skin, shaped brows and long lashes. One of her favorite product lines that is also a great bang for your buck is the Two Faced line of Sweet Peach colors. 1. The Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Collection is a steal at $49. You get 18 shades of on-trend peachy pinks infused with a juicy scent. You’ll have endless options for a summer-ready look all year round. 2. The Sweet Peach Glow is a peach-infused highlighting palette that gives you a “peachy” natural glow. The compact includes a bronzer and a blush that can be used separately or together. 3. Buy multiple shades of this Melted Matte Liquefied Matte Lipstick. It glides on like gloss but dries into a matte finish. It is lightweight, long-wearing and won’t crack on your lips! Products are available at Ulta, Sephora or online at TwoFaced.com. Are you getting married? Going to prom? Book a Girl’s Night Out and play around with your hair and makeup while sipping on something bubbly. Holt and Sage can be booked separately or together for all your beauty needs.

Bring your senses to Life Pamper yourself with this Orange Infused Scrub

ARTICLE DANA L. SCIPPO

It’s March and orange blossoms are in full bloom. Discover the intense fragrance of nature’s beauty by riding down Route 80- windows down. Bring the grove indoors by adding citrus inspirations to drab decor or by treating yourself with a do it yourself orange infused body scrub. It's sure to lift spirits and brighten outlooks. Body scrubs aren’t just for spa days! Exfoliate, invigorate, and regenerate tired skin right at home.

First, add a 1/2 cup of sea salt or course raw sugar to an airtight container. Next, add 1/2 cup of your favorite oil. Our favorites include olive, jojoba, or coconut oil. Add 1/2 teaspoon of high-quality orange essential oil. For an even more invigorating scrub add a pinch or two of orange zest! Mix the contents entirely and massage in a circular motion on hands, arms, face and legs. Your skin and senses will thank you! 34
