Dynamite Hill-Smithfield Community Land Trust is cooperatively run non-profit working towards, Food Sovereignty, Housing For All and Popular Education. We are an Environmental Justice agency working to building eco-housing, regenerative agriculture along with programming for Low-Income Women and Children. Our work began in 2016 with advocacy towards cooperatively run regenerative urban ag, deep concern for the environment, and a focus on Permanently Affordable Housing. Founded by the enigmatic Ms. Susan Diane Mitchell, and along with her Co-Director, Rev. Majadi Baruti, our women lead Board of Directors is made up of some of the most brilliant minds and compassionate hearts in Birmingham Alabama.
Our work continues and you can be a part of this through assisting us in acquiring land and resources for our continued work as Grassroots Developers. Smithfield and the Western Area of Birmingham, Alabama now face gentrification as a part of its developer driven economy. As we try to preserve the historicity of Smithfield a key geography in the Civil Rights struggle we also work to prevent displacement driven by development….ask how you can assist.
