Additional information
Instructions:
- Combine the clay, soil, and seeds in a mixing bowl and stir together until well mixed.
- Add a teaspoon of water to the mixing bowl and stir. Be careful not to add too much water!
- Keep adding water a teaspoon at a time until the mixture is sticky enough to be shaped into a ball without falling apart.
- Roll the mixture into balls approximately 1 inch in diameter (about the size of a ping pong ball).
- Leave the seed balls on a baking tray and place in the sun for a day, or until completely dry.
- Once dried, throw your seed balls into the garden, along the side of the road, into vacant lots, or any sunny green space where the grass will not be cut.
