DETROIT FOOD COMMONS
DETROIT BLACK COMMUNITY FOOD SOVEREIGNTY NETWORK
The second floor of the Detroit Food Commons is home to the Detroit Black Community Food Sovereignty Network offices, Kujichagulia Kitchens, and the Mama Imani Humphrey Banquet Hall. Kujichagulia Kitchens offers four licensed shared-use kitchens for culinary artists and food entrepreneurs. The 3,000 sq. ft. banquet hall hosts celebrations, meetings, performances, lectures, and community events.
The Detroit Food Commons is a two-story, 31,000 Sq. Ft. community development project spearheaded by the Detroit Black Community Food Sovereignty Network and our partner, Develop Detroit, Incorporated. We chose Black-owned companies L.S. Brinker Construction and architect SDG Associates to bring the vision of the Detroit Food Commons into reality. The $22 million project required multiple funding streams, including donations, grants, and loans.
