Awbury is truly a natural gem in the city of Philadelphia. This year, I've visited the arboretum for Thursday morning yoga classes, as well as for my Weaver's Way co-op hours. It's an amazing space to explore (and big!), and they do a wonderful job of working to connect the surrounding community to the natural beauty of North West Philadelphia. It's also a great event venue - whether you're planning a picnic, or a wedding (like us, 9 years ago), Awbury has so very much to offer.

The primary parking lot is next to the Cope House (1 Awbury Rd) - follow the driveway off of Chew Ave. If that parking lot is full or if the Cope House is being used for a private function, there is ample free street parking on Washington Lane, Chew Ave, and Ardleigh St, as well as spots in the the Washington Lane train station lot. If you're visiting the Agricultural Village (6336 Ardleigh St), park on Washington Lane or Ardleigh Street. Please visit www.awbury.org/directions for more directions.
