Berks County Living is the only regional magazine dedicated to highlighting all that is unique and wonderful about the Reading/Berks area. BCL’s first issue was published in the spring of 2000. Now in its sixth year of publication, this monthly lifestyle magazine continues to inform readers about serious issues such as health matters and the concerns of our seniors, as well as what makes Berks County an exceptional place to live.

Each issue brings to light the abundance of activities available to Berks Countians and the many exciting places to visit right in the area, including museums, historic sites and parks. BCL regularly profiles the experience of dining out at area restaurants. In addition, BCL profiles the talent of local artists, craftsmen, musicians, and features locally owned and operated businesses and organizations.

Readers look forward to the announcement of the annual Best of Berks winners featured in the December issue of BCL. Selected through a readers’ poll, the Best of Berks Awards cover the gamut from the best in food and entertainment to services provided by local businesses.

BCL is an idea-oriented publication that provides its readers with the best in home-related editorial with one-of-a kind home profiles and resources that help make a house a home.

Berks County Living is published by Lehigh Valley residents Lisa and Paul Prass, and it is edited by Berks County native Francine M. Scoboria.

The ongoing mission of Berks County Living is to adequately reflect the sense of pride Berks County residents have in their community and to encourage residents to make the most of living in Berks.
