The beginnings of S.E.E.D started when seeds were sown throughout the neighborhood, literally.
And from them, big sunflowers bloomed.
Fruit trees began sprouting up along the rail road tracks.
MyCDC Cooperative helped plant a food forest around Bayview School. Then, a special birthday boy celebrated his 65th birthday and planted 9 fruit trees along the street, followed by the Khalsa Aid Society donating another 22 fruit trees to create another food forest.
Neighbors began talking; talking around fires, around kitchen tables, in the school field. They wanted more!

Bigger dreams started to seed, which seeded the need to start S.E.E.D. the South End Ecological Development. We are now on our way to forming a formal Cooperative, to provide structure for our visions to materialize. We like to say we are becoming a legitimate Agrihood – a food abundant neighborhood. We are striving to become an Urban Ecovillage within the next decade. For now, we are tending food forests, caring for the Catstream, organizing community events, and making our neighborhood a rocking place to live!
