"B Inspired": Theresa Heist & Katie Emslie Provide Update on Boyertown's Community Garden

by Jane Stahl

As a way to celebrate the history of the country and participate in Studio B Art Gallery's "In Service" project, when the space to create a community garden--those gardens that historically served wartime soldiers and later local families--became available, Theresa Heist and Katie Emslie went to work.

The "B Inspired" episode explores the idea's origin, some history of Victory Gardens, the plan for the 2026 version, and an update about what's growing and will be harvested.

And while, technical difficulties prevented a tidy ending to the episode, we'll catch up to learn more about Katie in a future episode.

Find the "B Inspired" episode on your favorite podcast platform. Look forward to an Expression article with additional details about the garden.
