Learke owners Molly Godfrey and Nicole “Nella” Panella of Easton provide patrons a little of everything at their small boutique. They sell home decor items, candles, linens, books, antiques, bath products and kitchenware. Godfrey’s husband, John, makes heirloom furniture pieces.“There’s definitely a little bit of everything,” Molly Godfrey said.Molly Godfrey studied psychology, earned an elementary teaching certificate but found herself working in a doctor’s office. She always talked about opening a business with her friend, Panella. They met in November and about a week later leased their new store.“I always knew I wanted to do something, but I wasn’t sure what,” Molly Godfrey said.The name Learke (pronounced LARK) is a combination of their sons’s names -- Panella’s 19-year-old son, Levi; Godfrey’s 2-year-old son, Ari; and her 1-year-old, Kelly. Their business is like a lark taking flight, Godfrey said."It’s like, ‘We’re going for it,’ " she said.The owners sift out the wares from various wholesale sellers. They sell $6 chapstick and a farm table for hundreds of dollars. Bags are hot sellers. House plants are in demand because they’re hard to find and easy on those who don’t have a green thumb, Godfrey said.The owners plan to host after-hour book-signings, art exhibits and carpentry workshops. Hours are from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday to Sunday. The store is closed on Mondays.Coming soonThe Keystone Barbershop and Reed 403 Coworking Lounge are set to open in March.

The Emmaus High School grad went to barber school at night for 15 months, then worked at a downtown Lancaster barber shop before breaking out on his own, he said.“I chose barbering because it’s honest work and it’s rewarding work,” Storck said. “The people you meet along the way stick with you ... they become family and friends.”Storck wants clients to feel welcome and comfortable, relaxing in a chair as they receive a clean tailored haircut. Top-notch customer service is key, he said.Storck said he chose Easton for the venture because he’s seen its rebirth from a ghost town to a thriving restaurant and retail mecca. He wants in on the action, he said.“My wife and I feel very at home here in Easton and I’m very excited to build my little shop and brand downtown,” he said.Reed 403 Coworking Lounge will open March 1 following a private soft opening, according to owner Mark Calafatello.

Stuck inside? Tips for indoor gardening to bring green to your space while quarantined - USA TODAY

Grow vegetable scrapsKids might like this one: Many leafy vegetables such as romaine lettuce and bok choy will regrow from the parts you don't eat. Just cut off 1-2 inches at the base, put it aside (cut side up) in a bowl or shallow saucer filled with about a ½ inch of water. Place it in a sunny spot and watch the roots start to grow, then transplant it into soil in a pot.4. Grow a vegetable gardenIf you're feeling a yen for tomatoes and you've got a sunny patio or balcony, self-watering growing containers, such as City Jungle from Bio Green, make it easy to grow two full-sized tomato plants or whatever vegetables and herbs you choose. The built-in water reservoir automatically keeps plants watered.5. Grow flowering plantsMany flowering plants are easy to grow, says Schultz. African violets thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. Abutilon "Little Sunshine" plants from Logees.com is a good choice for a sunny windowsill and they're pretty, he says: Sunshine-yellow flowers with a blush of morning-orange on the inner petals bloom year-round.6. Add new houseplantsGreening up one's home is increasingly popular among new and experienced gardeners, says Warhurst, but you need to analyze the environmental conditions of your abode. Do you have enough sunlight?"We can easily manage (air, water and nutrients) but sun often becomes the limiting factor," Warhurst says. "Accurately defining the lighting conditions in your home and the sun requirements of the plants you choose can be the key to success."Grow lights, which offer the full spectrum of light plants need, can help if your home has low-light conditions. LED lights are very efficient, long-lasting and do not use hazardous glass or chemicals, Warhurst says. "Place the grow lights close to the plants and leave them on for 12 to 16 hours per day."Research what kind of light your houseplants need: For instance, he says, cacti, succulents and Ficus require three to four hours of direct sun each day, "bright enough to cast a shadow and to read a newspaper," Warhurst says. Low, indirect light is best for plants such as pothos and Chinese evergreens."These areas may be further away from a window or where sunl... https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/2020/03/31/coronavirus-quarantine-tips-garden-indoors-while-stuck-inside/2928016001/
