Dreams is a small urban farm in Wilkinsburg.
We sell high quality vegetable,
herb and flower
seedlings grown using organic methods.
Heirloom tomatoes, sweet & hot
peppers, eggplants and basil are our love and specialty and we offer an
amazing variety of each.
Our farm is
built on two vacant lots that, prior to being reclaimed, consisted of derelict
and abandoned houses.
We’re passionately
committed to providing outstanding service and making a difference in our
neighborhood.
