WELCOME TO CITY COMMONS!
City Commons formed as a cooperative in 2012 and has since grown to 7 participating farms serving over 100 households in Detroit and surrounding communities. Our farms are scattered all over Detroit and range in size, style and what we grow, but all are committed to safe and sustainable practices to build a healthy local food economy and a food sovereign Detroit. We do not use any synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides or GMO crops, and all our land is soil tested to ensure no contamination.
