Rootwork Commons is a neighbor-led project transforming unused city land into productive, regenerative, neighborhood economies by:

  1. Restoring the commons: Creating safe, welcoming public land cared for by neighbors

  2. Creating dignified employment: Paying residents to cultivate neighborhood land and build practical, ecological, and economic skills

  3. Following community-led design: Ensuring decisions come from neighbors themselves — including youth
