The Birmingham Weed and Seed Task Force is a program of the Birmingham Police Department's Vice and Narcotics Unit, operating under a grant from the United States Department of Justice to "weed" out harmful elements like gang and drug activity, from struggling neighborhoods and to "seed" the community with social services, communication links and goodwill between the police department and the public.

The task force also operates a "Highway Interdiction Unit" which patrols area highways for drug traffickers.

On September 13, 2006 officers of the Highway Interdiction Unit seized nearly $1 million in cash from a hidden compartment in a truck which was stopped on I-20-West near Leeds.
