Detroit neighborhoods have existed in “food deserts” for generations, and when coupled with the pandemic;  inability to travel far or venture out of one’s community; and lack of funds to spend on not just food but “healthy” food, the crisis escalates. Even worse to come, our already taxed agricultural supply chain is projected to no longer support the number of people that rely on it over the next few generations. This means even less access for those that struggle to access greens, fruits, and nutritionally dense/available foods currently. Our focus now is to create small answers, to our food crisis of both past and future. How can we create availability? How can we localize the supply chain?  How do we make words like “fresh, organic, nutritious” a part of our community’s everyday life? This initiative is our small answer to those questions, and to these pervasive problems. We want to make fresh produce not just something you go find but a place that you can hang out, normalizing their presence in our community, sparking intrigue, and what better way to get people to stay a while, than by weaving community  stories, and gathering spaces amongst theses fruit trees, opening doors to further learning and community participation; making our community and its members more self-sustaining.
