About Reroot Pontiac

We are an organization dedicated to the transformation of vacant blighted spaces into vibrant interactive educational areas in Pontiac MI. We have 65 vacant lots and 2 homes that we are restoring. Many of the lots have already begun to be transformed from overgrowth and dumping locations into immersive examples of environmental interaction and sustainable development. We are currently installing an orchard and apiary on 11 vacant lots and gardens on 2 others. Funding is being secured to develop intern housing class/lab space, offices and a commercial kitchen in our houses. Come and join us in creating some cool places and help us bring life back to these neglected spaces.
