Mission Statement
The Philadelphia Orchard Project plants orchards in the city of Philadelphia that grow healthy food, create green spaces and strengthen community food security.
About This Cause
POP works with community-based groups and volunteers to design and plant orchards filled with valuable and edible plants. POP provides the plants, trees, and training; community organizations own, maintain, and harvest the orchards, expanding community-based food production. Orchards are planted in formerly vacant lots, community gardens, schoolyards, and other spaces, almost exclusively in low-wealth neighborhoods where people lack access to fresh fruit. Please join us in building community food security for Philadelphia’s future! A donation to the POP is a unique way to support many social, environmental, and economic purposes. The benefits of orchards include: • Improving nutrition and public health by building community food security. • Restoring air, water, and soil quality. • Bringing people together to make neighborhoods cleaner, safer, and more livable. • Cutting fossil fuel emissions by sequestering carbon and localizing food supply Help us grow!
