My husband Bob and I started making and selling jams and relishes in our double garage back in 1954. That building and the house I grew up in still stand as part of the village today. And the Jam and Relish kitchen is the heart of a bustling village where I claim the title of Lady of the House.
You could say I grew up in the Village. I’m Pat’s daughter and like my two brothers who also work at the Village, I started working here when I was two!
What better job could a person have than Assistant Director of Fun here at Kitchen Kettle? On any given day you might find me giving a tour to a visiting group, reading comments from our guests, helping the Director of Fun plan one of our food festivals, sharing our story with the news media, greeting a bus full of guests, packing samples
I’m the Director of Fun at Kitchen Kettle Village. My forte is fun – I love it, create it and write about it! I relish a good joke, the opportunity to laugh at myself, and life in general.
As the Digital Marketing & Events Coordinator or Fun Advocate here at the Village, I get to work as part of our amazing Marketing Team to really highlight how special Kitchen Kettle and all our events are. As a Kutztown University graduate, I’ve always had a passion for all things digital, not to mention the latest trends.
I have a half-acre yard which I garden both in vegetables and flowers. My goal with these patches of dirt is to both produce food and to draw hummingbirds. It’s a hard labor of love. I am also an avid knitter, painter and I love to sing. I enjoy all things creative including dance, up-cycling, and flash mobs. Keeping it fun!
I am lucky to be the Marketing Director for 6 of the village stores (The Deerskin Leather Shop, Girls Day Out, Brighton Collectibles, Village Quilts, By Candle Light, Goodvibes, and The Jewelry Box) I get to work alongside the Kitchen Kettle Village marketing team to promote our unique, specialty products and shops.
