The Black Power Blueprint is a suite of programs created by the community, serving the community's ability to be self-reliant. In addition to the community garden, there is a community center, an outdoor event venue, the Uhuru Bakery & Cafe, the Vanguards Community Basketball court, the free food giveaway booth and more!

Be part of this positive vision for self-determination and economic development, uplifting our entire community. Other benefits include: meet new people, learn new skills, interact with nature, give back to the community, be part of a positive and fun day in the garden!

This is a great volunteer opportunity for individuals, families or groups. Sign up today! Don't hesitate to reach out with your questions. My name's Stephanie, I'm the Volunteer Coordinator and I'll get back to you right away.

APEDF History Since 1994, we have been establishing institutions and programs that put African people in control of our own community life. APEDF has longstanding institutions deeply rooted in the communities of Oakland, CA, St Louis, MO, St Petersburg, FL and Philadelphia, PA. This is economic development in the hands of the African community to feed, clothe, house and employ our people. We have the power to transform the future for African people, providing genuine solutions to disparities and injustice in every aspect of life for African people. We are driven by African self-determination, a sense of pride and a vision for a prosperous future once again.
