Summary of 10 years of Impact in Flint through our work

Picture
For the past 10 growing seasons, beginning in 2009, Edible Flint has worked to support community residents in growing and accessing healthy food, in order to connect them with the land and each other.  This report gathers information from the people we have served and is an effort to tell you a story about how we have worked together to help Flint grow!  Thank you all for your support of us as an organization and for continuing to support the work that we do.  

To download a digital copy of the report, click on the picture of the report cover on the right. We can also make printed copies available if you would like one please reach out to us for more information. 

The work we do cannot be done alone.  Thank you for giving us rich soil in which we can cultivate community improvement.
