Awbury Arboretum is a 55 acre arboretum located in the Germantown neighborhood of Northwest Philadelphia. Described as a “hidden gem” of green space, the arboretum is free and open to the public, without fences or gates, 365 days a year. Awbury has developed an agricultural village on the property that includes a farm-kitchen classroom, a greenhouse, and a community orchard. These resources and additional underutilized land on the property will be used by and for the Teen Leadership Corporation (TLC), which Awbury expanded with Impact100 funding.
