SEED LEGACY PROGRAM
Durham's small local businesses are an essential part of the city. Many of them have been around for generations and hold a special place in the hearts of Durham natives as well as newcomers to the area. The Durham SEED Legacy Program hopes to preserve these businesses, and make sure that they can continue to grow for many years.
