“I want to see Growing Home become an option, not a necessity. We should not be the solution for Englewood and the food insecurity (issues). What Englewood needs is the same investment that the North side (receives)... if you want to go get your salad over here and your salt over here, you should have that option… I could give you the narrative of the disinvestment. But we have to find a way to move forward. And one of those things is to (create) jobs and economic development.”

Janelle St. John is Executive Director of @growinghome, an organization which believes that everyone deserves to have a good job and to eat well.

Growing Home is Chicago’s leading expert in farm-based training for people with employment barriers. By providing 25 hours per week of paid on-the-job experience and job-readiness training on their farms, plus the support to conquer issues like criminal records, medical needs, child-care, and housing, they have changed the lives of hundreds of works, and thousands of their family members.

Janelle has been selected as a Bulls 2024 Martin Luther King Jr. Legacy Honoree due to her commitment inspiring economic opportunity and community empowerment in Englewood.
