LANDCARE SEASON IS HERE!
The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society's Philadelphia LandCare program is nationally recognized as a model for supporting communities and transforming vacant land. SKCP is proud to be a Community LandCare partner since 2013 and a Philadelphia LandCare contractor since 2017.
SKCP's team maintains and reports on vacant land in eastern North Philadelphia, visiting the sites twice monthly from Spring through the Fall, removing litter, mowing grass, and reporting conditions, including short dumping and construction that has become common in recent years.
LandCare helps make our communities cleaner, safer, and healthier. As important, it provides place based employment opportunities, something that has always been meaningful to our neighbors and the communities we serve. And we are looking to expand our team! For More Info
