We are pleased to partner with the Philly Fixers for one of their repair fairs! Greensgrow invites our community to embrace the values we share with Philly Fixers; Offering repair skill and promoting resourcefulness in our community. We agree that disposable “planned obsolescence” consumer culture we live with today isn’t always beneficial to the environment or people’s bank accounts.

The Philly Fixers Guild was started in early 2014 and is an independent collective of talented volunteers from differing technical backgrounds who are committed to the idea of “repair rather than replace.” In many instances guild members will not just simply fix items for people, but should work with them to teach the troubleshooting and repair process. Ultimately, our community will benefit from less waste and improved economic conservation.
