Detroit Partnership for Food, Learning, and Innovation

Located in the Riverdale neighborhood, near Brightmoor, the Partnership promotes urban agriculture research through community-based initiatives. The DPFLI is a resource for urban growers, students, and neighbors to come together and learn about agriculture and nature, as well as share space with one another. Current programs focus on soil research, food production, and volunteer days. With the MSU Product Center and MSU Tollgate Farms, DPFLI conducted a Race, Food, and Land in Detroit Lecture Series, which included three virtual guest lectures and webinars in Spanish on How to Launch a Food Business.
