***UPDATE*** The Project is funded!!! http://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/campaign-0-2214
This beautiful rooster lives at Spirit Farm in the heart of Detroit. Right now this small educational farm is raising money for a community space which would include a bulletin board and a space to rest and hang out.
then
It doesn’t take a large donation to make a difference, you can donate as little as a dollar.
Spirit farm is located in the Corktown neighborhood of Detroit, right behind the Spirit of Hope Church, which hosts the Soup at Spaulding event during the winter that I blogged about last summer (Original Post). Half of the money raised from this small funding drive will go to renovating Spaulding Court.
Spirit Farm is also hosting DUST : Urban Sustainability Workshops this summer in Detroit.
From the website: DUST is an intensive hands-on immersion course in urban sustainability, grass-roots community building, and community arts. Spend ten days in Detroit visiting Urban Farms, Gardens, Local Green Businesses, Green Building Projects, Public Art Works, and Community Art Galleries while learning about composting, worm farming, urban chickens, bee-keeping, natural building methods with local materials, water collection, grey water systems, bio remediation, and creating local food systems.
