Sowing Seeds of Change - LocalUp Feature

Sowing Seeds of Change is a new urban farm in D1 between 6th & 7th underneath the 710 FWY overpass. A literal concrete jungle that will be transformed into a glorious green space. The primary objectives and vision of our urban farm and vocational center are to provide training to & employ transition-aged people with disabilities and foster youth (ages 18-22) through a job-readiness program, grow organic produce, and host educational workshops for our neighboring community.

Sowing Seeds of Change has a mission to empower our participants to discover and actively engage in a local food system that encourages healthy living, nurtures the environment, and grows a sustainable community through vocational training, youth entrepreneurship, and leadership opportunities. Please check out our website, follow us on Instagram and Facebook @sscurbanfarm, share this project with your network, sign up to volunteer, and we ask that you please consider supporting us by making a $5 donation to help us build out our urban farm. Lindsay and Dina the co-founders are both LB Grocery Co-op Owners and would love to see our community come together in support of this project to bring food sovereignty, wellness, and jobs to marginalized populations.
