In May 2019, the initial concept to create a thriving urban farm and social space was born when the founders of City Sprouts were awarded a government tender to redevelop part of the former Henderson Secondary School, nestled in the heartland of Redhill, into an urban farming concept.

Since its establishment in 2020, City Sprouts serves as a place to bring gardening hobbyists, agri-preneurs, agrifood and agritech partners and neighbouring communities together to experience agriculture and food.
