Keep Growing Detroit

This is an excellent resource and place to get started or support for Gardening in Detroit, Hamtramck, Highland Park neighborhoods. With a low cost membership you get so much help. Check them out if you are interested in planting a garden for yourself, or your community.

KGD is part of the Eastern Market Corp. They help Detroiters grow their own vegetables. Great goal!!

A wonderful company. Provides seeds, plants, guidance for growing gardens as well as agricultural education classes, cooking classes, and a venue to sell any extra produce you may raise. Staff are positive and extremely helpful. A nice place to do volunteer work as well. They are the best!

It has engaging events that are fun and or informative. Like learning how to make jams, the keep growing Detroit picnic had an array of naturally grown food, and during one year around the beginning of fall I had the chance to go apple picking at an apple orchard with my boyfriend at the time. Overall this place offers new experiences and educational opportunities I'd recommend to anyone!

Can't say enough good things about KGD. One of the best nonprofit groups in Detroit.

They make it possible for regular Detroiters to grow great gardens.

Grass roots and Community sponsored organisations with a heart and mind commitment to local food production and policy.

KGD Always a pleasure to interact and learn from KGD members and Educators.

If you live in Detroit and are interested in learning anything about gardening, join KGD. It's WELL worth the $15 a year! So many classes, plant giveaways, discounts on trees and the Community Supported Agriculture boxes in the summer as well. Everyone is so friendly and their events are smooth. A special thank you to the volunteers who keep the organization and farm running! One of the best programs available to city residents.

Had a great experience volunteering, they were wonderful hosts, knowledgeable, and doing great work. I learned quite a bit.

We spent a great day with Molly helping on the farm and learning about agriculture and how to better maintain and grow our own gardens. A great facility with awesome people working hard towards a kick-ass cause: enabling people of Detroit to grow and possibly even profit from their own small gardens/farms.

Keep Growing Detroit sponsored a healthy and tasty dessert cooking class with chef extrondiarre, Nezza Bandele from Paradise Natural Foods. Again, my reviews are based on what I get out of it, and for me this was a blockbuster! Nezza was so informative on all levels, not just her cooking moxie, but history, chemistry, heritage, traditions and the spiritual side of cooking . Her vegan desserts with a dash of kindness, pinch of patience and a spoonful of laughter were decadent and satisfying. A great night at Oakwood ave urban farm.
