In celebration of a decade of impactful work, Seed Your Future is embarking on a 10-day fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $10,000 to support its mission of fostering a deeper appreciation for plants and awareness of horticultural careers.

“We are incredibly excited to commemorate this milestone in our organization’s journey,” said Jazmin Albarran, Executive Director of Seed Your Future. “Over the past 10 years, Seed Your Future has empowered youth to connect with the power of plants and pursue fulfilling careers in horticulture, botany, agriculture, and environmental science. This fundraiser represents our continuing commitment to cultivating a greener, more sustainable future. Together, we can inspire future generations to value and protect our planet.”
A cornerstone of Seed Your Future’s success has been its commitment to research and collaboration.
