LANDHEALTH INSTITUTE
Put Nature Back.

Students gardening

LandHealth Institute is a nonprofit based in the West Parkside neighborhood of Philadelphia with a mission to restore connections between nature and people. We focus on exploration, immersive at-the-source environmental education, and community-based land revitalization. LandHealth builds environmental awareness and appreciation while enhancing the environmental, social, and economic vitality of the city.

LandHealth's philosophy is grounded in the belief that healthy land is at the root of healthy communities. Our methodology is to plant seeds of discovery, knowledge, and stewardship. Rooted in robust community engagement, we elicit a deeper understanding of community ecology as a basis for holistic planning and sustainable design.
