Elkins Park Gardens

FarmerJawn’s Christa Barfield Left Her Philly Elkins Park Greenhouses. Where Will She Go Next? | Eater Philly

"The three Victorian-style greenhouses in Elkins Park made a memorable but brief home for FarmerJawn: rented after a Philadelphia Inquirer profile and supported by neighbors who appreciated having fresh produce within walking distance, the greenhouses initially allowed the operation to run a CSA and host community education, but chronic infrastructure problems—most critically a broken heating system that staff and volunteers could not get repaired by the landlord—led to dying plants, lost crops, and the decision to leave the site despite strong local support." - Eater
