SUMMARY: A new health food project, Origin Foods, is stirring debate in Huntsville at the former Garden Cove natural foods site on Meridian Street. Charles Bryant, founder of Origin Foods, aims to revive heritage-based vegetarian meals inspired by his previous work at Garden Cove, emphasizing affordable, authentic nutrition. However, the original Garden Cove family, including Edna Sydney, claim they were never informed and worry customers may be misled into thinking they’re involved, labeling the project as misleading. Bryant insists Origin Foods is a distinct, respectful revival of the legacy but not a reopening, hoping to partner with local farms and schools to promote healthy, affordable food options.

There is some controversy over a new business opening at the Garden Cove site.

SUMMARY: Federal agents raided the Gulf Shores High School construction site last week, arresting about three dozen undocumented workers. Gulf Shores Mayor Robert Craft stated the city was not involved in or targeted by the raid and supports enforcing immigration laws. Construction, managed by the contractor, resumed immediately after a brief shutdown and remains ahead of schedule. Despite concerns about work quality raised after the raid, the mayor dismissed them as speculative. The \$131 million school is still on track to open in Fall 2026. Similar immigration operations have occurred across the Gulf Coast, targeting undocumented workers, some linked to criminal activities.
