The “Garden Party” was a success, despite a brief torrential down pour students, gardeners, farmers, nonprofits representatives and members of local government met at the University of the Art’s new rooftop to garden to celebrate the launch of Growlots Philadelphia a dual website that ties together collaborative content management with social networking, visit http://growlotsphiladelphia.com and http://growlotsphiladelphianetwork.com, described by some as Philadelphia’s newest and sharpest gardening tool. We presented our our project and afterwards the new website administrators Sarah Wu and Nic Esposito said a few encouraging words about how they envision the website assisting in the city’s urban agriculture development. Check out the party pictures below, and thank you to everyone that came out, it was great to see all of you!
