The Dynamite Hill-Smithfield Community Land Trust is a community organization founded in 2015 to support low-income home ownership and community-based business development.
The land trust was organized by Susan Diane Mitchell with assistance from the Magic City Agriculture Project and in coordination with the Western Area Framework Plan, which is part of the Birmingham Comprehensive Plan process. The land trust's first fundraising efforts went toward acquiring an initial parcel and to provide training through the National Community Land Trust Network. The group also plans to help establish the Davis Women’s Cooperative and Cultural Resource Center in the childhood home of activist Angela Davis.
