Give that episode a listen to learn more about how this non-profit installs orchards throughout the city of Philadelphia.

I’ve known Robyn for many years, after meeting in Philadelphia during a presentation given by Peter Bane at the Awbury Arboretum alongside the executive director of POP, Phil Forsyth. Along the way we’ve kept in touch as I continue to follow her work in Urban Permaculture. Not only is Robyn an amazing permaculturist, she is also a musician with The Radicans and an organizer for BeardFest.
Find out more about Robyn and her permaculture work at PhillyOrchards.org.
