Quakertown, four miles away, is the gateway to historic Bucks County. The county, founded by William Penn in the 18th century, has many original churches, buildings, and farms. Visit the Burgess-Folke House and Liberty Hall, dating from 1812 and 1742, respectively. On weekends, stop by the Quakertown Farmers Market. And don't miss Rice's Sale and Country Market, which has been open every Tuesday for the past 100 years.
