Global Community Engagement & Service- a Service Project with Global Growers and a trip to DeKalb Farmer's Market

Primary tabs

Join OIE staff for a day trip to learn about the global communities in the Atlanta area and engage in a service project! The trip includes: 1) Visit the DeKalb Farmer's Market, a market with products from around the world and a rich cultural representation of people from more than 40 countries, speaking in 50 different languages and dialects. 2) Engage in a service project at Global Growers, a non-profit that creates opportunities in sustainable agriculture, by growing good food, training farmers, and providing economic opportunity for international farmers. Global Growers supports a global community of farmers, many of who came to Atlanta as refugees of war and are working to reconnect to their agricultural heritage in their new home in Georgia.
