About AllGenPlants:

AllGenPlants grows directly out of the AllGenHomes vision of building resilient communities.

At AllGenHomes, resilience begins in the kitchen, the place where families gather, share, and sustain themselves. At AllGenPlants, we take one step earlier in the journey, starting at the garden level.

This is more than a cooking group: it’s a hands-on revival of knowledge, a celebration of native flavors, and a resilient community of doers who cook, learn & share.
