City Grows, located at 5208 Butler Street, is an urban organic garden store in Pittsburgh's Lawrenceville. City Grows has been attracting people since its opening in August of 2014. Here's why you should support this local business, too:

1. They are sustainable.

City Grows uses repurposed items as often as possible. Additionally, they offer certified organic plants and seeds, which are beneficial to the soil and the environment.

2. They support urban gardening.

Urban gardening is very important for cities. Plants have amazing air purifying qualities that are integral for urban areas. Whether you're looking for a small succulent for your bedroom, a hanging plant for your balcony, or a potted plant for your porch, City Grows will fulfill your green needs!

3. They offer classes.

City Grows not only supports the environment and sustainability but the owners encourage others to do the same. They provide classes on anything from aquaponics to composting. Furthermore, if you are someone who is interested in teaching a sustainability-related class, you can contact City Grows on their website!

4. They host local bands in their basement.

In addition to being locally involved in Pittsburgh's small business scene, City Grows also involves Pittsburgh's local music scene. Moreover, touring bands looking for somewhere intimate to play often perform at City Grows. The wooden floors, evening lighting and surrounding plants provide a unique setting for these gatherings.

5. They don't just offer plants.
