Back to EpisodesHow Philly Became the Country's Public Garden Capital
Description
Philly is home to 38 public gardens and historic landscapes, more than anywhere else in the country. Today we're revisiting a conversation between host Trenae Nuri and author Nicole Juday about the historic Woodlands public garden and cemetery, the 200-year evolution of Philly's gardens, and how to best enjoy one of the most elaborate gardens in the US (hot tip: on a bench with lunch).
You can find Nicole’s book here.
