Karen and Mike Minnis

Mike and Karen Minnis believe in gardening with a mission. The couple runs the Landmark Training Development Company on Carnes Avenue, just off Airways in the Orange Mound area. What you’ll find after encountering the couple is not just the wonderful provision of food, but wisdom and actionable tips to improve your life. With Mike Minnis at the helm, Landmark Training is able to operate a farmer’s market, food pantry, urban outreach center, and other advocacy programs. The Minnis family runs a two-acre farm in inner-city Memphis, which was inspired by their son. Despite all of the obstacles that can arise with developing a farm in an urban area, the founder and Landmark Training staff were up to the challenge. Their hard work earned them the top prize at Tennessee’s Small Farm Expo. Minnis offers Landmark Farms tours, which gives visitors an upclose and personal experience of what it takes to maintain an urban farm.

WELCOME TO LANDMARK TRAINING DEVELOPMENT COMPANY!

Empowering the Community. Supporting Organic Lifestyle. Championing Local.

We work diligently in support of healthier environments where families have access to nutritious foods, positive experiences, and educational guidance to help them thrive. Neighborhoods need champions – members, volunteers, donors, teachers, and organizers – to keep farmer’s markets and food pantries essential to the community. Why? Because everyone deserves to have access to healthy produce. Much of the food sold at the Landmark Farmer’s Market is grown and harvested by our staff and volunteers on our urban farm located in the Memphis Area. In addition to increasing food access, our aim is to serve as a center for community involvement. This takes commitment, true passion, cooperation, and insight.

Sustainability is Our Main Goal

On a worldwide scale, agriculture is facing one of its hardest challenges: to produce enough fresh, nutritious food to accommodate the needs of present and future populations. Additionally, the protection of the environment and human health are also at stake. A core principle of the Landmark Training Development Team is to use research and hands-on training to implement innovative solutions to these sustainability setbacks. We cannot do this alone. This cause requires the participation of farmers, researchers, volunteers, retailers, public officials, and more.

The Youth Urban Farm Training Program

The Youth Urban Farm Training Program is a paid apprenticeship for youth living in Memphis, TN that is run all year around. Apprentices are involved in all parts of nurturing the farm – planting, weeding, harvesting, composting, marketing, outreach, and more. In addition to learning the fundamentals of urban farming, youth will also develop their job and leadership skills, while positively engaging with peers, the community, and the environment. With Landmark, you will: * Grow fresh vegetables for the community, while learning about agriculture, food, plants, food justice, and the environment. Develop skills in teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and communication. * Interested in joining the program? Want to include your group, class, or organization? Simply fill out the volunteer form and write: ‘Youth Urban Farm Training Program’ in the Subject Line.

Food Pantry

Landmark Training Development Company created the Landmark Food Pantry to help serve as a solution to food poverty. Families who are struggling financially deserve to have fresh food in their households. We knew there must be a cost-effective way to get food into the hands of citizens that needed it. Here’s what’s great about the Food Pantry: Puts fresh food and vegetables on a family’s table. Helps the environment by directing matter into compost that helps grow more plants, trees, and maybe even more produce for the communit. A botanical garden experience that gives an insightful look at the benefits plant life provides to mankind.

A botanical garden experience

Landmark Gardens has over 100 objects to view and enjoy, including aqua phonics, hydroponics and many edible plants you can add to your own backyard. A visit to Landmark Gardens is a memorable time to be had for all ages. Schedule a tour today!
