PHS Pop Up Gardens 2025: Seasonal Splendor and Sustainability
PHS Pop Up Gardens 2025 marks a special time for the Philadelphia region, providing a vibrant green retreat in the city’s heart. In Manayunk and on South Street, guests will find hundreds of plants—including many given a second life after the PHS Philadelphia Flower Show—illustrating the organization’s commitment to eco-friendly initiatives. With every sip and bite purchased, visitors support PHS’s wider mission: promoting community health, well-being, and horticultural education through year-round greening projects. Each garden boasts a bar, full restaurant service, games, and frequent gatherings like monthly plant swaps, championed by sponsors such as Solo Real Estate on South Street.
