Seed Your Future is committed to providing educators with resources to promote horticulture and inspire students to consider pursuing careers working with plants. Our strategic plan includes not only creating new resources, but serving as a clearing house for the excellent resources of other organizations. Check back often to see what's new!



If you are an educator at a 2- or 4-year college or university with a horticulture program, you are invited to attend our Horticulture Programs Enrollment Summit, June 27-28, 2019.  Learn more about the Enrollment Summit.




BLOOM! is our campaign to reach middle-schoolers and inspire their interest in plants and plant careers. Partnering with Scholastic, we have a toolkit of resources for educators. Check it out at our Scholastic site.
