Grow and Walk DelCo

For a few weeks this Spring & Summer, meetup at the "New County Park" in Darby and let Black Girls With Green Thumbs kick off your 2026 outdoor wellness routine!

Grow & Walk DelCo is community wellness challenge that combines gardening, exercise, and joy to help community members improve their health, connect with nature, and build meaningful relationships with neighbors.

YOU will earn badges, make new friends, and discover the joy of gardening, walking, and exercise — all while having a blast with your neighbors!

During Grow & Walk DelCo, you'll begin to look at your neighborhood with fresh eyes!

Twice monthly, we meet up for a fun combination of group exercise with a professional trainer, followed by a different wellness challenge (activity) that centers around gardening, walking, or lite fitness.

Walking destinations will include a variety of places in the area - some rooted in local history, others admired local green spaces.

You'll even earn "badges" along the way to commemorate every walking and gardening milestone. Remember, it's okay to celebrate the small successes!
