This two-acre urban farm run by the Minnis family in Orange Mound addresses critical food access issues. Since 2010, Landmark has operated a year-round indoor market, a food pantry, and Landmark Gardens. Having been told they’re the only food pantry in the tri-state region open five days a week, Landmark tackles the persistent issue of hunger.
Mike and Karen Minnis bring knowledge and empathy to their mission, offering not only fresh produce but also support and companionship. Landmark is a place of respite, providing nourishment and a listening ear to those in need.
