Empowering Youth Through Urban Agriculture: Discover SEEDS
Founded in 1994, SEEDS is a two-acre urban garden and kitchen classroom in the heart of Durham.
SEEDS develops the capacity of young people to respect life, the earth, and each other through growing, cooking, and sharing food.
The garden is open to the public Tuesday-Friday 9am-2pm. See Calendar for weekend openings.
