About

Cook’s Memorial Presbyterian Church is spearheading a Community Garden to support the Mt. Island Community. The  garden consists of 20 plots each roughly 10 feet by 10 feet. In addition the gardeners and other volunteers help maintain a 1/3 acre plot designed to grow food to provide free organic produce to those in need at no cost.

Cooks Community Garden aims to:

  • Support the community through positive engagement
  • Educate and encourage ideals surrounding gardening, nutrition and community.
  • To be accessible to the community at large, including those from low-resource backgrounds
  • Encourage a sense of community for all, regardless of faith, color, gender, ethnicity,  socio-economic status, etc
