Today, Longwood Gardens and the American Society for Horticultural Science (ASHS) announced the launch of the Seed Your Future initiative, a multi-year effort to combat declining awareness of horticulture among U.S. audiences and promote horticulture as a vital and viable career path for the nation's youth. More than 150 partner organizations, including leaders in horticultural industries, horticultural associations, public gardens, public agencies, K-12 and higher education have already signed on to the initiative which aims to preserve the future of this increasingly at-risk field.
