Peter starts us off by taking a walk in the woods with Jessica Pierce, Middlesex native and Forester for PA Dept of Conservation and Natural Resources. They discuss the nature of the area and the uniqueness of our township. Then the team has a chat with Melissa Sullivan, owner of Valencia Donut Co and world traveler, who decided to put down community roots in Middlesex Township by buying the business.
