McIntosh Sustainable Environment and Economic Development (S.E.E.D.)
For over 20 years, McIntosh S.E.E.D. continues to operate on the values established at its first community gathering. Decision making starts at the community level with a reliance on principles of inclusion and equality. The organization continues to work across the artificially constructed lines of race and class, continually supporting empowerment and confidence building among oppressed populations.
