East Phillips Neighborhood Institute - Urban Farm Initiative
The East Phillips Neighborhood Institute (EPNI) is a community-led, grassroots non-profit dedicated to advocating for environmental justice and people’s participation within East Phillips and the broader Minneapolis community. Our overriding goal is to prevent more pollution from damaging our already health-challenged, low-income, and BIPOC community while promoting healthy, sustainable futures. We are passionately fighting to save the 28th St. Roof Depot Building and transform it into a community-led Urban Farm!
