Genesis Garden continues to expand
By Steven Barnum, Correspondent
MACOMB Genesis Garden has been active in tackling healthy food scarcity in the McDonough County region for many years, but they’ve scaled up their efforts significantly since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The non-profit organization offers the public a variety of different programs, all of which are in the midst of expansion, according to Genesis Garden Executive Director John Curtis. He said that the organization plans to renew Kids Cook, a summer curriculum that teaches kids how to cook from home. They provide kids with kitchen tools, recipes, ingredients, training videos, and personal coaching to ensure success.
