About
This map serves the Detroit region and is sponsored by Sustainable Detroit at sustainabledetroit.org. Note that we're aware of many other green sites in the region beyond those listed here. The map is still in development, so more are being added all the time. However, we are also aware of many sites that we have chosen *not* to add to the map for purposes of privacy. For example, the city of Detroit has MANY more community gardens than are listed here, but we assume those neighborhood groups wish to maintain their privacy unless given explicit permission to publish the site. As this map is still under development, we encourage you to join in on the map mapmaking. The world is watching Detroit, and it's time that our sustainability work was better known.

Herbalist Jim McDonald writes on his website herbcraft.org: "Gary Wanttaja has the best selection of dried bulk herbs anywhere around, and is probably one of the wisest plant people I know of, possessed of admirable knowledge and a singular sense of humor. Nature's Products is located in Detroit at 20020 Conant (minutes from I-75 & 8 Mile Road); give him a ring at (313) 891-3900 for current hours."
The saying once attributed to GM may now hold for China, at least when it comes to transforming transportation. What’s good for China may be good for the world.
To me, Avalon Bakery represents the very heart of an evolving & sustainable Detroit. Formed with community & ecological awareness, this is a place where people meet and are nurtured. Great smells waft from the baked goods made with organic flours, healthy soups, the fair trade coffee...and much more... in a charming old store front setting in walking distance of Wayne State Campus, the Art, Historical & African American Museums....
