Georgia Street Community Collective
Georgia Street is located on the East side of Detroit. Founder Mark Covington began cleaning up empty lots on Georgia and Vinton in 2008 and today GSCC is comprised of 17 lots, which contain a garden, fruit Orchard and farm animals. A library and computer center are also available to those in the community. Mark continues to be an inspiring and supportive mentor to the neighborhood youth. The support for this community enrichment program is managed by Kristi Petry.
