Grown in Detroit
Grown in Detroit (GID) fruits, vegetables, flowers, honey, and herbs are grown in urban gardens and farms throughout Detroit, Hamtramck, and Highland Park. All members of the GID collective of growers are committed to producing food sustainably in healthy soil without the use of harmful chemicals, pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified seeds. All Garden Resource Program members are welcome to participate. GID growers receive 100% of the revenue from produce sold.
We happily accept EBT/SNAP benefits, Double Up Food Bucks, and P-EBT at our Saturday Farm Stand at Eastern Market.
