“Chanticleer is an absolutely breathtaking space. Better than Longwood, in my opinion! Do not miss this garden in the Philadelphia area- it’s truly the best one!We love to head to Terrain afterwards (8 min drive away) for lunch and to browse garden goodies / souvenirs :)Picnic area: They have tables near the kitchen gardens for picnics!”
“We found this place by chance on a drive and we really enjoyed it. The place was opened to the public and there were volunteers at the entrance that were able to answer questions concerning the once private residence. The paths were very well managed and the gardens (even though still early spring) were lovely. Great place to relax and take in nature. We highly recommend.”
“Adoptions From The Heart is an excellent adoption agency. Their staff is knowledgeable and caring, and they truly care about birth mothers and adoptive families. We were impressed with their level of professionalism and attention to detail throughout the adoption process. They helped us navigate the legal complexities of adoption and made the entire process as stress-free as possible. We highly recommend them to anyone considering adoption.”
“Everyone was amazing, and so nice. The social workers are so kind, and helpful! Being here during a hard time brought us so much comfort. Thank you Ronald McDonald ❤️”
“I found a screech owl standing in the middle of the road during the day, so knew something was not right. I carefully picked it up, placed it in a box with a blanket inside, and brought it to Philly Metro Wildlife Center.
They ask that you donate $50 when you bring in an animal to help cover the cost of taking care of it, which I found to be a small ask. It's also not required at all, so donate what you can, whether it's more or less ?
I was given a case number and was able to call a couple days later to check in on my owl friend. It's nice knowing that you can help an animal to either heal or help it to have an easier death than what was waiting for it in the road. Thank you to the entire animal care team for all that you do”
“The AFTD has been hugely helpful in navigating my family’s journey with Frontotemporal Degeneration, a rare, but unforgiving type of early-onset dementia. The AFTD website includes a plethora of useful information regarding everything from research that is being done to long-term care and advocacy support for families.”
“last winter i took part in one of the NBW Adult Bike Repair courses and it was a huge game changer in my confidence performing maintenance and repairs on my bike as needed! i highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to improve their relationship with their bike. i feel so much more empowered as a daily commuter now that i understand the basics of how my bike works and functions.
i took a small spill the other day and when i got back on my bike i could tell something was off. instead of panicking i was able to go through the list of things i learned in the course, figure out the issue (my back break pads had been knocked out of alignment), i made the adjustment and was back on my way to work in just a few minutes!
thank you to andrew for teaching the course and the other kind volunteers who helped out each week, the knowledge you shared is being put to use for me often!!”
“I attend the bingo events here. They raise money for various things within the organization. It's a fun atmosphere. They also sell snacks and drinks during the event. They also raffle off about 4 or 5 prizes and do a 50/50. ATM on the premises as well.”
“Arrived around 4pm, they close at 6. Walked around the outdoor area, then went inside to see the other half and the sun went down, went back outside and it was a whole other world with string lights and colored light. Very magical after dark!
There is a cool self guided scavenger hunt inside and outside. They have guided tours to other parts of the building as well I think you have to schedule in advance.
Overall a cool experience, it doesn't take long to walk through the general admission area.”
“Some much working expensive with coach by walking his side with David my coach I know for 4 years now it was a lot of happy very much Happy now .

First I was very sad, depressed, and frustrated, and upset but I learn hard way to calm myself down with medicine was on help alot. That's my experience.”
“Always showing a uniquely curated selection or films from the last 100+ years. Always clean and staff are always pleasant.
This place may lack frills such as fountain soda and cup holders but it’s really not an issue. Thankful we have such a place in Center City!”
“We adopted two kittens from the same litter. Adopting from Kitty Cottage is a great experience. They take amazing care of the cats, and ensure they adopt to qualified candidates who will give their cats a great home.”
“Had a great time cleaning shoes for donation to children in need. Incredible young staff that runs the show. This is such a fun volunteer opportunity, don't pass it up if it's offered to you. I will absolutely return upon my organizations next scheduled event.”
“Our band recently had a gig here and they were very accommodating and the sound system was excellent. Unfortunately, they do not sell or offer food selections, but the bar is very reasonably priced. Also, there is smoking allowed in the building which is not a major issue, but I think they probably should make them go outside to smoke.”
“My family went for a Sunday swim day and they really enjoyed themselves. I got there a little later than everyone but really enjoyed watching my grandchildren have fun. I did get a chance to get in the pool which is a little small but clean. Nice place for families.”
“I have been a member of three other CSA's and what I love about this one is the choice! "Shopping" in the store room is always fun and I love the perks and affordable add-ons like the Fruit and the Flowers! The optional volunteer hours also have taught me a lot!”

“Saunders Woods Preserve is a 25-acre haven of tranquility for both wildlife and the Gladwyne community. Donated to Natural Lands in 1988 by Dorothy Saunders, the preserve was originally known as “Little Farm” and has long been a place of refuge. The Bridlewild Trail meanders through the preserve, connecting to a network of community paths. Visitors can enjoy a lively forest habitat and an open meadow, which is home to various bird species. The circa-1830 barn adds historical charm and serves as a welcoming space for families, students, scout troops, equestrians, and community members.”
“It's small, but there's lot of variety at Hildacy. Trails, open fields of grass, streams...pretty much whatever natural spaces you're into. It's not a popular spot so you can expect some privacy even in summer. Free entrance and parking”

“If you want to give your kids a lifelong love for the game please I implore you to sent them to Legacy. The program for munchkins are well designed for fun and also most importantly the fundamentals in the game. I’m very much impressed with the drills that are used on 4-7 year olds. I wished I had this as a child. The ratio of coach to kids were 1 to 4 on average depending on the day but not more than 1 to 6.”

“Went to see the play "Little Women" here last night. It's very small and intimate. You walk in and it feels like a middle school. You won't be sure you are in the right place. Looks like they do pottery classes as well. The cast was fantastic. I think there were a few people here that will go on to do larger productions. If that really is the measure of success. I personally love the stripped down atmosphere. There are not huge set change outs, elaborate costumes, or big band scores. The play relies on the actors ability to evoke emotion and tell a story. This is a very different experience from larger productions and if you live in the area it's the perfect little escape. Get out for a few hours. Support your local playhouse. You can't buy an experience off Amazon. Yet....”

“I recently completed an adult drawing class here with Jo Gamel. I loved the small class size and the balance between technical training and creative freedom. Masks and social distances are are practiced and class sizes are capped. When the weather allows we drew outside. Classes also available for children, illustration, pottery and painting for all levels.”
