Urban Tree Connection is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that helps low-income communities in West Philly transform vacant lots into community-driven green and garden spaces. These gardens connect neighborhoods and help form a community-based food system, helping people access healthy, affordable, and culturally relevant food.
