What's walkable or bikeable from your home? Do you have access to your daily needs within just 10 minutes?

5th Square Political Action Committee and the South Philly Food Co-op join in conversation around the benefits to the health, accessibility, and vibrancy brought to cities and individuals when we have basic amenities within a 10-minute walk or bike from our homes. This moderated panel discussion will include time for questions, and an opportunity to learn how 5th Sq and the Co-op are working to improve equity, access, and sustainability for Philadelphia residents.

Moderator Christine Knapp, Director of Sustainability, City of Philadelphia
