Who and What are We?

The Grandmont Rosedale Community Garden was established in 2009 by residents and nearby friends of the Grandmont and Rosedale neighborhoods in northwest Detroit. Start up costs for raised beds, fencing, tool etc. were provided by grant funds that were received by the Grandmont Rosedale Development Corporation. Additional grants and donations for infrastructure improvements were received as well. Over the years, a variety of volunteers (Detroit Project Day and others) have assisted with projects including replacing/adding raised beds and fencing.

Anyone who is interested and able to contribute to the work of maintaining the garden is invited to “join” us; There is no formal membership and no gardening experience is necessary.

This is a collaborative, community effort. Everyone shares in the work and everyone benefits from the harvest.
