Kennett Square

Kennett Square’s business district has attracted entrepreneurs for centuries. Today, a diverse mix of architects, accountants, lawyers, doctors, and other professionals fill its downtown and attract visitors to support its landmark retailers and restaurants.

Other residents commute regularly to Philadelphia, Wilmington, and the surrounding communities where they enjoy opportunities in diverse industries including financial services, education, health and medical services, and at the many museums and attractions that dot its countryside. Agriculture, especially mushroom farming, also factors prominently in Kennett Square’s economy. Kennett Square is the “Mushroom Capital of the World,” a fact it celebrates every September with a Mushroom Festival.
