The Mount Airy Black-led farmers market has its final event of the year on Saturday.If you ask Erika Johnson about what she grows in her personal garden, it sounds as if she’s operating more of a farm out of her Germantown home.
“This is the village mindset. That’s the community mindset. This is how we take care of each other,” she said.of the year takes place this Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. outside of Avenues Cafe, located at 7201 Germantown Ave. Johnson will have space for her own business,, which teaches people how to grow their own seeds and plants, and will offer free dill seeds for anyone who stops by.
Johnson has felt a close connection with agriculture her whole life, remembering how her currently 101-year-old grandfather used to grow tomatoes in his backyard, pluck them off the vine and eat them like an apple. During the pandemic, Johnson started taking her growing more seriously, and developed Black + Planted.
Unlike other community gardens, there’s no waitlist for the Growing Together Community Garden in South Philly
