Norris Square Neighborhood Project

Norris Square Neighborhood Project is a community and cultural organization in Philadelphia. It brings together youth leadership, community gardens, and cultural programming. Youth-focused programs support young people's leadership and self-expression, while six garden experiences celebrate Puerto Rican culture and the African Diaspora. The organization also offers garden tours, events, a farm stand, and volunteer opportunities. Its community work centers on people, land, and culture, with an emphasis on education through community and nature. Organizations can take part in cultural service immersions. The project grew from efforts to create an environmental center and community gardens as welcoming spaces for neighborhood youth, Spanish speakers, and other community members.
