Dallas Community Development

We finished National Community Development Week 2026 at Bonton Farms! This urban agriculture initiative addresses the root causes of poverty through food production and workforce development. By transforming underutilized land into productive community assets like the Market Cafe and Wellness Center, Bonton Farms is advancing health and economic mobility in South Dallas.
