Green Spaces Alliance of South Texas

San Antonio, TX

Green Spaces Alliance is non-profit organization that serves San Antonio through three programs that address land conservation, community engagement and education for our city's precious natural resources. The organization began in 1998 as a land trust to help preserve environmentally sensitive land over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. Since then, additional programming through our Picture Your World Youth Photography Program and The Community Gardens Program has helped to involve and inform thousands of urban residents about the importance of nature in San Antonio and their role in it.

The Promise of Peace Gardens is a hands-on, heart-centered organization dedicated to instilling a sense of brotherhood across our communities, making sure every child has enough local food.

Garfield Park Community Council

Chicago, IL

The Garfield Park Community Council works to revitalize the vibrant and proud community of Garfield Park on Chicago's West Side. One of the GPCC's signature efforts is its 31-member Garfield Park Garden Network and Neighborhood Market, both sources of fresh, healthy food and community-building in one of Chicago's most distressed communities. We are specifically seeking support for the Fulton Street Vegetable and Flower Garden, which plays a major role in the community by hosting volunteers and youth interns, producing vegetables for the Market, and teaching others to grow healthy food, all within one of the communities' most beautiful gathering spaces.

Michigan Urban Farming Initiative

Detroit, MI

The Michigan Urban Farming Initiative is a non-profit organization based in Detroit's North End community.  MUFI's mission is to use urban agriculture as a platform to promote education, sustainability, and community in an effort to empower urban communities and potentially develop a broader model for redevelopment for other urban communities.  Our primary focus is the redevelopment of a two block area in Detroit's North End, which is being positioned as an epicenter of urban agriculture.  Centered around "adaptive reuse of the built-environment", we are hoping to demonstrate strategies for increasing food-security, cost-competitive models for blight-deconstruction, and innovation in Blue-&-Green infrastructure.
