Help support our local pollinators and bring a little beauty to your yard with seed balls! Seed balls are little compost and clay spheres full of wildflower seeds that you can drop in your yard or in a pot. With just some water and sunshine, you’ll soon have your own patch of wildflowers! This seed ball activity is appropriate for ages 5 and up, and children will need to have their adult present.
