Seeding Initiatives

To be strong and vibrant, a neighborhood must offer opportunity and support to the people who
live there. That’s why Weed & Seed strives to “seed” neighborhoods with social services
and economic revitalization measures that can help restore stability, while helping to create long-term change and
improved quality of life.
