Seed Bombs
(Liberty Club)
In this workshop, participants will gain knowledge of biodiversity and the importance of maintaining garden areas through creating plant ‘bombs’ that will supplement the GFG Liberty Club’s green spaces. Learners will have to consider the different types of habitats in the area and match the best seeds/plants to them. The course will focus on teamwork and planning so that learners are prepared to plant and maintain their seed bombs.
