We’ve Launched a GoFundMe Campaign &
We Need Your Support 🌻 🙏🏼
Since 2020, Rhythm Seed Farm has grown into so much more than a farm. It’s a place for community, connection, and belonging. 💚
Rhythm Seed Farm has become a second home for many: a place to gather, learn, volunteer, reconnect with the land, and build meaningful relationships.
We’ve donated thousands of seed packets to Pacific Northwest organizations serving BIPOC and historically marginalized communities, helping put seeds and fresh food into the hands of many. Together, we’ve grown more than 10 million locally adapted seeds, trained the next generation of growers, and built a community rooted in resilience and abundance.
Now, we’re facing one of the biggest challenges in our history: we’re being displaced from the land we’ve called home. While this chapter is heartbreaking, we see this as an opportunity to build something lasting. We have a chance to reimagine what Rhythm Seed Farm can become, but we can’t do it alone.
Your support will help us secure a new home, uplift the community we’ve built, and ensure Rhythm Seed Farm can continue to spread seed sovereignty for years to come. 🌱
We need to raise $50,000 by Dec 31, 2026, help us stay alive!
Four companies currently own over 60% of the world’s seed supply.
It’s time to invest in Seed Security before it’s too late.
Help secure our food’s future.
Grow With Us: Make a Gift to our Annual Fund
Traditional seed varieties are disappearing at an alarming rate (up to 90%) and locally adapted seeds are crucial to prevent food system collapse in the face of climate disasters.
That’s why we’re working to preserve endangered seed varieties and adapting them to thrive in the PNW at our urban farm in Portland, Oregon. We are the only nonprofit in the Portland area that focuses on seed saving and seed sovereignty.By growing and distributing locally adapted seeds, we strengthen our community’s resiliency and help secure our food’s future.
Together we can work to reclaim seeds into the hands of the people.
We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit growing locally-adapted vegetable, flower, and medicine seeds at our urban farm in Portland, Oregon. We are committed to local food security, educating the next generation of seed savers, and healing our environment from the ground up. We are building the future we want to see, centering social justice and climate action as a form of revolution. That’s why we donate half of the seeds we grow to low income and BIPOC communities, school gardens, and others in need.
Our Work
Urban Seed Farm
Since our founding in 2021, we have grown over 7 million locally-adapted seeds in the city, preserving heirloom varieties that are threatened to be lost. All of our seeds are grown using regenerative and organic techniques.
Seed Donation Program
To date, we have donated over 10,000 seed packets to low-income and BIPOC centered organizations (enough to grow 300,000lbs+ of food and medicine).
Education + Apprenticeship
We work with schools and teach classes on Seed Saving and Regenerative land-tending to people of all ages. Our Apprentice program supports hands-on skills development.
Deep Mulch Dry Farming
We educate about this revolutionary growing technique that uses woodchips to grow 1,000lbs of food every year without water or fertilizer. Yes, it's as mind-blowing as it sounds 🤯
Edible Landscaping
We convert lawns and empty lots into productive edible landscapes to grow healthier communities and ecosystems. Our design style integrates permaculture principles with natural beauty, giving the best of both worlds.
Events + Workshops
Thousands of people have visited the farm to learn about growing food and medicine, seed saving, and climate resilient growing techniques at our workshops, tours, and events.
Join us on our mission to regenerate urban landscapes and create abundance in our communities, one seed at a time.
