GenesisProject 214

Our Story

The Genesis Projects’ goal is simple: create a local non-gmo seed bank, purchase land for organic farming and botanical gardens, helping to establish urban gardens, educating and assisting those in need along the way.

In Chicago, the community of West Pullman is considered a 'food desert'. A food desert is defined as a large geographic area with no or distant grocery stores.
The Genesis Project 214 - Repurpose vacant lots for food production to bring fresh, nutritious food to West Pullman and surrounding communities on Chicago’s Far South Side.

In the Albuquerque, New Mexico area, our goal is to supply local chefs with fresh herbs and produce.

- Unified network of farmers and urban Agri-growers including the south suburbs and regional growers.

- Establish a consumer-owned Food Co-op.

- Introduce local youth to Agriculture and other ancillary components of Agriculture.

- Establish a local market offering locally and regionally grown produce, meats, dairy, and value added textiles, soaps, herbs, spices, jewelry, art, and fine arts to the local community.

- Work with local government to provide locally grown produce to schools.
