"This half-acre farm and plant nursery in Germantown is intentional about sustainability when it comes to growing organic produce, herbs, and botanicals. On Saturdays (from the beginning of May through the end of October) it hosts a farmstand that sells vegetables, herbs, and plants." - George Banks-Weston

The Best Philly Bars and Restaurants to Support on Game Day | Eater

"Talk about extra safety measures: Meals at Germantown Garden Grill happen in heated plastic igloos that seat two to six people. The menu at this poolside locale in Northern Liberties features steakhouse specials such as center-cut filet mignon, bone-in pork chop, crab cakes, and lobster mac and cheese. It’s connected to Germantown Garden, which offers indoor and outdoor dining with a menu that trends casual — lobster rolls, sliders, fried chicken sandwiches, and fun drinks, including boozy pitchers created by Lê, the legendary proprietor of speakeasy Hop Sing Laundromat. Both Germantown Garden and the Grill have plenty of TVs playing on game days, and delivery is available." - Vox Creative

By far the best plants I've found. After hearing about Germantown Kitchen Garden for a couple of years, I was excited to try them. What a place! I purchased some native perennials, herbs, vegetables and a couple of berry starters. All are stellar quality and their customer service was above and beyond. A true gem in the city. Thank you!

In the midst of Philly's Urban landscape, is a wonderful farm (natural Oasis). I just love ❤️ it! I'd recommend everyone to visit. If your not a gardener, they also have a great tasty fruit & veggie stand!

When someone tells me they're from our area, I always ask them first if they know about the Germantown Kitchen Garden or "Amanda's Place". Most do but if not I tell them it's the thing they need to do next to feel the soul of the area. The Farm is a special treat in today's modern world. She and her staff are super knowledgeable and friendly and the produce is of an amazing quality, but most of all she has purposely created a community space that feels like a throwback to the 1970s when folks loved to gather to support community projects. My wife and I have been going for years and love supporting Amanda. She's a good egg who is committed to building a community spirit around her veggies and plants and other products she sells from local makers. We always look forward to when the farm opens in the spring and love the seasonal markets sponsors where we can meet new makers and connect with friends. Even if you're not from the Mount Airy-Germantown area, going there on a Saturday is well worth the ride!

This place is a gem! They have a great selection of heirloom vegetables and unusual herbs, as well as native plants. I found several things that I’d been having trouble finding at other nurseries, and had to stop myself from leaving with far more things than I have space for in my garden.

Such a gem! Love it. Healthy native plants at very reasonable prices. Cute coffee spot in the back!

An incredible, tucked-away, peaceful urban farm. Stop by on Saturday mornings during May - October for fresh produce, plus eggs, freshly baked bread, pizza dough, local honey, and more. They also have a plant nursery (for online or in-person browsing) with herb/vegetable seedlings, native plants, fruit trees/bushes, perennials, shrubs, trees, and flowers. There's even a seating area in the back where you can get local coffee and enjoy the beautiful oasis. Such a special community place in Germantown.

Next to my own backyard produce this is the best place for veggies. Buying and eating food grown 2 blocks away is such a gift when you live in an urban area. Hyperlocal 💖 Plus there's Germantown Espresso Bar for a weekly store bought coffee. And bread from 2 local bakeries. Plus more. I love it.

Germantown kitchen garden is a gem! Amanda cares for the land the way she cares for the community. We purchased so many native plants from her to get our unruly ugly yard to be a dreamy oasis. We couldn’t find better prices out there. Farmers market items are gorgeous and it feels good to eat local. Haven’t tried their CSA but want to one season.

So this place has become a staple for us. We go every Saturday at 9 to beat the crowd. We pick up our things and then get a coffee. It's like second nature now. The little tomatoes are the best thing I've had here. I don't know what's different about them but they almost have a slight sweetness. But really I've never gotten anything bad here. The Bread loafs they have are great. The pizza dough is too. You just need to use it and not let it explode in the fridge. I did that. More than once. I'm an idiot. Everyone that works the stand is super nice and helpful. They are always down to make suggestions on how to use what you buy. Now my favorite part is the coffee. They rotate their small coffee companies. Not sure if it's on purpose but I love it. It's a great way to sample local coffee shops. Sometimes it's out front with a truck and sometimes it's out back with a tent. In the back there is a small area you can sit and hang. We can't get enough of this place AND YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO.
