If you are someone who likes doing things with your own hands and don't mind getting dirty once in a while, then this activity is for you. In this activity, we are going to show you how to grow things like flowers without having to dig or prepare the land/ planting area. It is also a therapeutic activity as we are going to learn how to make SEED BOMBS.
﻿
 A seed bomb is a ball made of compost mixed with flour and water into which seeds have been embedded. Once the bomb has been thrown and the seeds have begun to germinate the bomb will slowly break apart. The soil will then provide a base for the seeds to start growing.
﻿
Seed bombs are an ideal way to bring some life to any hard to reach or barren areas.
