An Indigenous collective in Detroit asked about buying land bank property. Then the price jumped.
She envisioned a sacred space for Detroit’s Indigenous community — a powwow ground, smokehouse, garden, church, and gathering place.

Excerpt:
Greg Willerer, co-owner of Corktown urban farm Brother Nature Produce, was tapped a month ago to help plow the ground at a lot gifted to the Indigenous collective by Arboretum Detroit.
He’s had his own challenges with buying multiple lots from the land bank to grow his farm. The process took 13 years but the land bank honored the original listed price. Willerer believes the land bank should do the same thing for the The?hí?ila Collective and recognize its community work. But instead of arguing about price, he said the land bank should just give the collective the land.
“You have a group of native people who are trying to do good community work, why… would you get in their way?
Recently the city did “just give” Indigenous tribes land.
Earlier this month, the City Council transferred the deed of a 0.58-acre site to the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi for $1 for a sacred burial mound at Historic Fort Wayne dating back more than 1,000 years.
