For the sixth year, Jamie and Jeff Cascino invite the community to the lighting of their Wishing Tree at their residence at 209 N Monroe Street, Boyertown, on December 4, 2025, beginning at 6 p.m. with the lighting scheduled for 7 p.m.
Complimentary hot chocolate and hot dogs for ALL attendees, live music presented by Crossroads Guitars and Art, and an invitation to submit letters to Santa and to place wishes on The Wishing Tree are features of the evening celebration.
A special collaboration this season includes an invitation to join in with a special wish--to collect enough canned goods to build a Tree of Cans to be featured at Multi-Service's Festival of Trees.
The Cascinos are hoping to help brighten the holidays and put food on the table for their neighbors in need.

"The extra 'C' in Cascino stands for caring," offers Jamie Cascino in a "B Inspired" podcast episode recorded in 2023. Find the episode on Spotify Cascino Means Caring or your favorite podcast platform.

Thanks Francine! I discovered clafoutis last year and love making it for get-togethers. It’s always a hit. I usually use blueberries. I’ve never tried cherries, much less unpitted ones! That is worth a try!
What is this flower called?
The plant is a cyclamen.
