“I usually go to the Roosevelt Blvd clinic but this was just as exceptional aside from the quality of surrounding area. Technicians were top notch with communication and timeliness of services. I would really like to mention Luis from the call center for this industry for handling a very urgent situation I had. He went above and beyond to ensure myself and my pets were taken care of during a very stressful situation. Every workplace deserves employees like Luis, he was one of a kind.”

“We recently adopted our saluki from NGAP and had such a great experience. It's clear Megan and Bobbi have a passion for what they do and genuinely want to see these dogs end up in good homes. Megan took a lot of time out of her schedule to show us several dogs and even let us come with our other dog to meet the ones we were most interested in. There are so many sweet dogs here and we genuinely wish we could have taken more than one home! We love the boy we ended up adopting -- he is such a great fit into our lives. Couldn't recommend NGAP enough.”

“This comment is long overdue, but better late than never, I guess.

First, it's worth mentioning that I was an organic farmer for a little over a decade and have been an agricultural consultant now with a research institution for seven years. I’ve visited farms all over the country and talked with growers, toured their operations, and have seen hundreds of different ag endeavors from small community gardens to tens of thousands of acres of commodity crop production.

I can tell you without a doubt, that the farmers at Pennypack are the best organic vegetable farmers in the Northeastern United States. Kirstie and Steph might cringe to hear me say that, because they’re humble, good people. But it’s the truth.

First, you’ll never find a CSA share more generous than this one. I still don’t understand how they produce so much food on the modest amount of acreage available to them, but they do. They do it year after year, battling through extreme weather events, with no identifiable decrease in the share volume. It’s an incredible feat. Every week, we left with bags and bags of produce. In the summer, it was literally too much for one person to carry. I say this not to add the pressure of unrealistic expectations to their lives; farm seasons are more unpredictable than ever and it may not always be this way. But Kirstie & Steph have an unparalleled ability to produce massive amounts of healthy food and it's proven out every season.

Second, the quality of what they produce is so high that it makes me embarrassed to say I was ever a farmer. Do you know how hard it is to grow a Napa cabbage without little holes from flea beetles? I legitimately thought it was impossible. Do you know how absolutely infuriating it is to grow good quality carrots? They make it look easy. And yet, this is the norm for the farmers at Pennypack. Everything is beautiful, and it tastes exactly the way it looks.

Finally, I have yet to meet farmers like Kirstie and Steph that do the amazing work that they do, care so deeply about their community, and do it with little or no fanfare or public recognition. Farmers with their depth of knowledge and expertise are rare. They’re precious to our society. And if young people don’t continue to engage with farming, the combined mental library that Kirstie and Steph have amassed via practical experience will simply go away. Very few will ever know how to farm like that on that specific piece of land ever again. Yet every year, even with the thousands of other things they have to focus on, they take the time to train and teach new & beginning farmers and send them out into the world.

The people at Pennypack - Julie, Audrey, Kirstie, and Steph - are smart and passionate, they’re kind to everyone, and I hope people that become CSA members in the future will appreciate that the farm is an extraordinary place. Hundreds of families and their kids have enjoyed visiting to pick strawberries, tomatoes, peas, and beans grown with great effort and care. It's a place where you can feel safe in the knowledge that nothing was sprayed with harmful inputs, where the entire farm and surrounding forest is brimming with life, and where you can bring your kids to engage with a real working farm that lives in concert with nature.

Our daughter’s first-ever strawberry was from the farm. It was a special moment that I’ll never forget. What could be better than that?

Sign up and support your local farmers!”

“I cannot say enough great things about the Dolphins Aquatic Club. We joined in 2021 when our former club was shut down for Covid and it was the best move we could have made. The coaches are amazing and very knowledgeable and we are like a big family. Our swimmers go on to become very successful in their swimming careers. My son has made great friends and his skill level has improved so much since working with this coaching staff. If you are looking for a great swim team with a family feel this is the club to join.”

“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.”

“I attended PCK 2 years ago and graduated. It was one of the best experiences in my adult life. Not only did I learn culinary skills, I learned and relearned interpersonal skills, updated my math skills, learned to work as part of a team. PCK changed my life for the better. Superb training, great chefs, administrators and other students that I will always be fond of. PCK gives and gives and gives. It is a gift that keeps on giving to their students and to the community. I am a chef now and love it. Im a healthy 63 yr young woman who embarked on a passion...a dream.PCK makes dreams come true. Soon I will be going further with my education...my culinary dream to study more at one of the best culinary schools in the world and continue to use all the positive training and life enhancing experiences I received and gained at Philabundance Community Kitchen. I will always be grateful to the donors, owner, chefs, teachers, and staff and volunteers and fellow students. Its life changing for the community and for any student that works hard and ethically to reach the goals PCK puts forth.Carlotta "A'Ries" Ferguson”

“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....”
