Our Farms
Weavers Way Farms represents the Co-op’s Ends in action: Our farm department operates working farms in Northwest Philadelphia that provide learning opportunities for our communities as well as fresh, environmentally responsible food.
At our two farm locations, Weavers Way grows more than 50 different types of vegetables and fruit on 6.5 acres, supplying our farmers market, the Weavers Way Co-op stores and the Henry Got Crops CSA with fresh produce. With roots in a volunteer-run garden, the farms now employ five full-time farmers during the growing season. Through the nonprofit Food Moxie, community members and students visit the farms and get their hands dirty planting, weeding, harvesting, tasting and learning about growing healthy food.

The farm is on the grounds of Saul High School in Roxborough, on land owned by Philadelphia Parks and Recreation on the edge of Wissahickon Park. Henry Got Crops emerged in 2009 from an existing partnership between the Co-op and Saul High. Saul students are involved with every aspect of the farm, from hands-on fieldwork to newsletter writing, applied research and summer internships.

CSA and You Pick Programs
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a method of food distribution that links customers directly to the farmer. Customers pay upfront to purchase a “share” of the farm before the growing season starts, providing farmers with cash to pay for seeds and supplies and guaranteeing a market for the produce.

Mort Brooks Memorial Farm at Awbury Arboretum
In 2000, Norma Brooks and other co-op members established the Mort Brooks Memorial Farm in honor of Norma's husband, a longtime Weavers Way Board member. This group of volunteers evolved into the Farm Committee, which continues to support the farms. In 2007, Weavers Way hired its first farm manager to produce food for the Mt. Airy store at the Mort Brooks Farm. Since its establishment, the surrounding land has grown into The Farm at Awbury, home to many new farming ventures. This farm site hosts our greenhouse, where we start our seedlings.
