Grown in Detroit. Garden Resource Program Collaborative. Detroit Eastern Market - Detroit Eastern Market. Detroit Black Community Food Security Network. Earthworks Urban Farm. As a society, we have become dangerously disconnected from the land and the sources of food that sustain life. We have detached ourselves from the real source of wealth - a respectful and reverent relationship with each other and the land. In 1997, Brother Rick Samyn felt a calling to start a garden at his workplace, the Capuchin Soup Kitchen. The response was overwhelming and positive. That small plot of land grew into what is our urban farm project today. Earthworks Urban Farm seeks to build a just, beautiful food system through education, inspiration, and community development. We seek to restore our connection to the environment and community. This project relies on the gracious donations of many.
You are welcome to visit our farm at any time and take our self-guided tour. Food Gatherers. Gleaners Community Food Bank of Southeastern Michigan: Home.
