Saylor's Village is proud to announce our 2026 initiative to establish Urban Agriculture Centers across Birmingham's west side. This project is designed to empower local residents through education, sustainability and community collaboration. Each center will feature a community garden and safe recreational space, with specific hubs containing classrooms and community kitchens that promote hands-on learning and healthy lifestyles. Centers will serve as community hubs where residents can grow fresh food, share skills and build lasting connections while revitalizing underused areas.
The initiative invites all community member 18 years and older (younger volunteers are welcome if accompanied by an adult) to take part in shaping a more sustainable and self-sufficient Birmingham. Whether you're an experienced gardener, an aspiring chef, a student or a community organizer, there is a place for you in The Village. Sign-up is ongoing, ensuring that everyone who wishes to contribute to this transformative effort has the opportunity to get involved. Together, we can cultivate spaces that nourish both people and the community where we live.
