Seed Bomb Workshop! Atelier de bombes à semences!
with/avec Initiative Las Verduras
In this workshop you will learn how to make seed bombs that will grow into flowers beneficial to pollinating insects.
We will use recycled clay, dry red clay, soil from our garden & wild flower mix - "bee feed". The seeds are a blend of nectar and pollen flowers for honey bees, native bees, bumblebees, and other pollinators. Adapted to our climate, this mix of low-maintenance perennials and reseeding annual wildflowers contains over 10 varieties. These seeds can be used to increase biodiversity on abandoned city plots, forgotten corners, planters and gardens - this will directly contribute to the increase of pollination in city gardens. Many of the plants are medicinal/edible which gives you the opportunity to harvest and save the seeds for next year. Everyone will participate in mixing the clay / soil & seed mix, so be ready to get dirty!
Each person will leave with 12 BEE Bombs so please bring an empty egg carton as this is a great way to transport them. Following the workshop all participants will receive the PDF presentation with a detailed description of each plant that is part of the mix.
The workshop is hosted hosted by Transition NDG and will take place at Café Zephyr. The cost is 12$ per person. Portion of the sales will be used to cover the cost of workshop (materials, fees & space) , with a percentage going to Transition NDG to help them support other workshops and events. Two reduced cost places available upon request: kathrynaitken2017@gmail.com
Purchase your tickets soon as the spaces are limited!
