Eat local, from your yard! Join us for a workshop on edible landscaping led by the Orchard Director of the Philadelphia Orchard Project (POP). This introductory workshop will cover kitchen gardens, backyard orchards, edible forest gardens, container gardens, and plants that are both ornamental and delicious!
