It is probably safe to assume that if you are reading this, then you are interested in hosting a unique event. We hope this information, along with a visit to the farm, will inspire you to choose Greensgrow as the location for your event. Our charm and whimsy and, of course, our mission are unparalleled. The property is a working farm and nursery, which is an amazing indoor-outdoor natural backdrop, right here in the heart of Philadelphia. Although we tend to attract the person who is seeking a more “DIY”, affordable event space, we can help you imagine the possibilities of the whole gamut of different events that you could plan. Because our property changes with the seasons, each event is treated as a custom creation.

What is Greensgrow Farms?

Greensgrow is a nationally recognized leader in urban farming and is open to the public year round. Green roofs on composting toilets, washing machines stripped down to spin-dry lettuce, honey bees perched on top of a biodiesel shed, a neighborhood lawn replaced with an heirloom tomato garden, plants grown to measure environmental impact. Milkshake the pig, an abandoned house turned office space, an unused church kitchen turned small food business incubator, Santa Klaus and a deck made from old pallets and water bottles. A laundry list of crazy ideas? Yes, and it is all this and more that has made Greensgrow one of the most unique places in Philadelphia, especially if you are looking to host a totally one-of-a-kind event.

Greensgrow made my wedding magical. It was hard walking into a business and trying to imagine what your big day is going to look like, but the staff truly made a magical night. Lauren is responsive and very helpful when it comes to answering questions or giving advice about the space. With her helping out, I didn't have to worry about the venue details at all. I am so thankful for the staff that moved the farm around and helped set up for the big day. They utilized plants from the farm to transform the greenhouse to a beautiful ceremony space. We had 95 people and it was intimate, but still very spacious. As the reception went on we were able to use the rest of the farm. It was just perfect and I have so much love for this place!!

We hosted our wedding at Greensgrow farm and it was an awesome experience. We chose the farm because it was a great mix of both of us - a little farm and a little city. It's a green oasis in the middle of a urban block which lends itself to a great juxtaposition. Greensgrow was also super accommodating regarding the DIY aspects - we were able to choose our caterer (with vetting) and everything from tables to flatware to plate, etc. From the minute we visited to the day of our wedding, our coordinator, Lauren did an excellent job communicating with us all year long and helping us figure out the even the smallest of details. Our wedding was in late September so the farm was decked out with mums and greenery, pumpkins and gourds. It really added to the wedding ambience. We ended up not having to purchase florals because the farm basically speaks for itself..the entire place was beautiful! We had 120 people and were able to hold the wedding outdoors in the main garden area and it was truly special. I highly recommend to any new brides planning a wedding!

Our experience with Greensgrow was everything we hoped it would be. From first contact until after the wedding, the team did an amazing job of communicating with us and exceeding our expectations. The farm is gorgeous and was perfect for our intimate wedding (30 people). Our initial plan was to hold the ceremony and reception outside under the sun pavillion with the cocktail hour in the greenhouse, but as our wedding day approached, it became clear that we were in for a lot of rain. Lauren was proactive and reached out to me with an alternate plan of having the reception in the greenhouse as well, and it worked perfectly! The greenhouse was full of beautiful plants, making for a lovely cozy dinner and some spectacular photos. We were actually grateful for the rain and even more grateful for Greensgrow!
