Benjamin Rush State Park Attraction Details
Benjamin Rush State Park
http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/parks/benjaminrush.aspx
This undeveloped state park is a mixture of open fields and woodlots in the northeast corner of Philadelphia. The park has the world's largest community gardens. Each year hundreds of local citizens come to Benjamin Rush State Park and enjoy the pleasures of planting their own garden. They rent small plots, and spend the summer tending their vegetables and flowers. Most of them spend their weekends here and make the project a family affair. For information about the garden, please call Kay at 215-745 0892.

Many state parks have varying levels of handicap accessible facilities. For full accessibility information, reservations or additional inquiries about Pennsylvania's State Parks, please call 888-PA-PARKS.
