BIOPHILLY

Established in 2015, it is bioPhilly's mission to promote the important link between human health and the meaningful daily experience of wild and bio-diverse nature in the city. We engage with our fellow citizens towards realizing our dream of an urban habitat tapestry, which reaches across the city - on the ground, on building facades and across rooftops - connecting the Delaware to the Schuylkill River. 

Each and every building project represents an opportunity to strengthen public health by mitigating urban heat, absorbing fine particle and noise pollution and supporting native biodiversity via vegetated building envelopes, bird-friendly glazing and bird-and-people-friendly lighting design.

Work with us and let us help you re-imagine your project as a vibrant urban oasis.

BioPhilly is a Philly-focused daughter organization and member of the Biophilic Cities Network. We seek to promote equitable habitat urbanism and biophilic urban acupuncture towards a beautiful and climate-resilient city, universally restorative of public health and well-being for all urban residents, human and non-human alike.

In our advocacy we aim to inspire the City of Philadelphia to join the growing number of Biophilic Partner Cities from Washington DC to Singapore.
