Make scottish coastal wildflower seed bombs with us!

We're inviting children (any age) and parents to join us for an art and science workshop as part of Earth Month at The Rockfield Centre.

A seed bomb is a small ball of seeds and soil prepared in advanced and to be carried in the pocket, ready for when you spot a piece of ground that could be more nature filled! Perfect for rewilding ex-industrial parts of the town or holding the coastal soils out of the sea.

Those who are interested can learn about the unique ecosystems where wildflowers and seaweeds meet.

We’ll also prepare throwing slings and practise our creative throws. Let's be joyful in our efforts to protect the planet!

All materials are provided.

Please book before coming along.

Seaweed Gardens

This session is run by Seaweed Gardens, a local collective of researchers, creatives and growers. Seaweed Gardens are a group of active citizens working with the seaweed growing on our coast to make better soil in community garden projects, learning about the local seas in the process and then reimagining them through art in the wider community.
