A seed-bombs-making workshop can be a fun and engaging way to promote environmental sustainability and community engagement.
﻿
Completing an eco-lab through the Cities of Learning platform can offer individuals a variety of opportunities to learn and take action towards environmental sustainability. Here is what you can do and learn through this specific eco-lab 'Beautifying the Environment' :
﻿
Introduction to seed bombs: The workshop could begin with an introduction to seed bombs, which are small balls made of flour, soil, and seeds that can be used to plant wildflowers and other plants in urban areas. Participants would learn about the benefits of seed bombs, including their ability to increase biodiversity, beautify public spaces, and support pollinators like bees and butterflies.
﻿
Making seed bombs: Participants would then have the opportunity to make their own seed bombs, using materials like flour, soil, and a variety of seeds. They would learn about the different types of seeds that can be used, and how to mix and shape the materials to create seed bombs that are both effective and visually appealing.
﻿
Planting the seed bombs: After making their seed bombs, participants would have the opportunity to plant them in a local public space, such as a park, schoolyard, or abandoned lot. They would learn about the best planting techniques to ensure the seed-bombs have the greatest chance of success, and how to care for them over time.
﻿
Reflection and discussion: Finally, the workshop would conclude with a reflection and discussion period, where participants would share their thoughts and feelings about the experience. They would discuss what they learned about environmental issues and community engagement, as well as strategies for promoting sustainability in their community.
﻿
Through this activity, participants can learn a variety of valuable lessons. They can gain a deeper understanding of the importance of biodiversity and the role that plants play in supporting ecosystems and pollinators. They can also develop practical skills for promoting sustainability in their community, such as making seed bombs and planting them in public spaces. Finally, they can build connections with other community members who share their passion for environmental sustainability and feel empowered to take action towards a more sustainable future.
