5 IMPACT PRIORITIES

Increasing Access to Healthy Food

The time is now to provide ourselves, our family, and our community with fresh and healthy food. For decades, PHS has been working to expand access to fresh food and expand best practices through our Community Gardening programs, engagement with home gardeners, and our extensive network of public gardens and landscapes.

PHS launched Harvest 2020 to address the growing 12% of households in the Greater Philadelphia region that are food insecure this growing season. With partnerships throughout the region PHS has mobilized nearly 10,000 gardeners – in our community alone – to increase their food production, to share with their families, their communities, and local food pantries.

Together, these impact priorities are critical to the health and well-being of individuals and neighborhoods in the Greater Philadelphia region and beyond.

Creating Healthy Living Environments

The Greater Philadelphia region is heavily urbanized, and it continues to experience significant growth, development, and environmental change. Safe, beautiful, environmentally sound streets and public spaces are fundamental to the quality of life for residents and contribute greatly to people’s health and well-being. From planting street trees and greening vacant land to engaging people in gardening their front yards, PHS will enable community-driven change through education and hands-on support. PHS will concentrate efforts on those people and places that have suffered ongoing neglect to ensure that everyone enjoys the benefits of a high quality, livable environment.

It is no secret that person-to-person contact is an essential component to improved health and safety – it has even been linked to living longer. And yet, individuals are suffering from increased feelings of isolation and loneliness.

Our findings indicate that there is a strong desire to participate in community-driven initiatives that bring people closer together. PHS will build deeper social connections between people through gardening, incorporating collective action, community development, and outreach to build trust and bridge gaps among neighbors and between communities.

Growing Economic Opportunity

Just as horticulture can be a powerful tool to strengthen neighborhoods and social connection, so too can it offer a path to growing economic opportunity through workforce development, especially for underserved individuals and communities.

With the unmet need for labor in all sectors of the horticultural industry forecasted to increase over time, we see opportunities to train and place significant numbers of workers in jobs, with an emphasis on those workers who need them most, including the recently incarcerated. PHS will seek to play a central role in preparing people to take advantage of new careers in this emerging sector.

Healthy Neighborhoods Programs and Engagement

PHS recognizes neighborhoods as vital partners in making Home gardeners have long understood the power of impactful change for people and as such, has developed a horticulture to make transformative change. PHS is creating place-based urban greening model that utilizes its extensive a movement among backyard gardeners by convening suite of programs – community gardens, trees, vacant land collective action projects and by equipping them with the management, and green stormwater infrastructure – in distinct knowledge and tools they need to make a difference through neighborhoods, informed by specific community needs. Over their own gardening activities. During spring 2020, PHS recast the long-term, PHS will work with academic and research its in-person educational programming to offer all new online institutions to document the impacts of these programs on GROWinars and short videos that invited all PHS communities health and well-being. During spring 2020, PHS continued to to Grow Together. provide these essential services through seedling distribution to more than 135 community gardens and greening of 13,000+ vacant lots.

10 Leadership Donors: Robin Potter and Peter Gould

Thanks to the transformative investment of Robin Potter and Peter Gould and many other key PHS donors, PHS has raised three years of stable support for Tree programs that will allow for expansion of our tree planting and stewardship efforts into low-income priority neighborhoods that experience tree canopy coverage well under the recommended 30%.

PHS is continuing to build a future where trees and their accompanying environmental and health benefits are fully integrated into every neighborhood in our region.

Trees in urban environments are increasingly understood to be instrumental to public health. As a tool for mitigating surface temperatures related to climate change, as filters for particulates that increase the incidence of respiratory conditions, as interventions to decrease gun violence, and as a means for cost-effectively reducing carbon, increased tree canopy is an effective measure to improve the environment in multiple ways.

Measuring Success

PHS has developed new performance management processes and organizational dashboards to monitor and evaluate impact, engagement, and financial performance to better understand our progress in executing our vision and strategy. We will also continue to partner with renowned academic research institutions, such as the University of Pennsylvania and Temple University, to launch formal research studies that evaluate the external impact of PHS initiatives.

11 PHS AT 200, A SHARED VISION

We envision a world where cultivating plants is seen as essential to life.

We see a world where everyone appreciates the joy of plants and gardens in their daily lives.
