It’s Not Too Late to Start an Urban Garden. Here’s How. | Eater Detroit

"At the headquarters and main teaching site I found that KDG Farms hosts about half of the Garden Resource Program classes and workshops, is where growers of all ages practice and hone their skills, and is the place where the Motown Music garlic seeds are grown. Classes and workshops are listed every two weeks and are promoted as a way to meet other growers—new gardeners can access about 20 to 25 other gardeners for hands-on help as they start their personal gardening journeys." - Darralynn Hutson

Keep Growing Detroit Raises Funds to Purchase Farm in Eastern Market | Eater Detroit

"An urban farm and program hub operating on a 1.3-acre Eastern Market lot is raising funds to buy the land outright to secure long-term food-sovereignty work across Detroit, Highland Park, and Hamtramck. The early-April campaign includes a dollar-for-dollar anonymous matching gift up to $20,000 available through Friday, April 30, and aims to protect and expand services that include the nationally recognized Garden Resource Program and Grown in Detroit, online produce ordering with curbside pickup, transplant distributions, and virtual cooking and education classes. Demand surged during COVID-19—resources were provided to nearly 2,000 urban farms and family gardens in 2020—and leadership helped establish the Detroit Black Farmer Land Fund that raised $60,000 for local growers. Purchasing the Eastern Market parcel would enable permanent structures, additional greenhouse and high-tunnel capacity, and expanded food-distribution and training capacity so the organization can deepen its community roots amid ongoing local food-access challenges (a 2017 report estimated about 48% of city households lack adequate affordable nutritious food)." - Courtney Burk

If you have a garden or even just a few containers on your front porch, you should be utilizing the garden resource program at Keep Growing Detroit! Not only do they give out free plants for cold crops, hot crops and fall garlic planting. But they also give out free seeds and offer numerous classes on all aspects of urban agriculture. They are located around the corner from Eastern market, so there's plenty of parking in the large Central parking lot. They offer access to other community sharing resources like tool libraries, raised bed kits, and compost! It's just $15 a year for a family garden or $30 annually for a community garden. Either way you are most definitely getting more than you would hope for from this resource.

KGDF- referred me to an owner, Candi Farms, in Detroit at Margrove Conservation who had the Transplants I requested. She was very pleasant and professional. Thank you, Keep Growing Detroit Farm!

Today they were very organized and the line moved pretty fast. I saw a lot of new faces working on the distribution and I missed a few of my favorites, specifically Lindsay and Kedo. They were always so helpful.
