Seed Bomb Insanity
July 27, 2017 9:22 AM
Santa Monica, California – Adults and kids alike, come get your hands dirty at the library building seed bombs on, Thursday, August 3, 2017 at 3:00 p.m. at the Main Library in the Central Courtyard, 601 Santa Monica Blvd.
Help build a better world by creating pods of seeds and soil to launch into those hard-to-reach areas of your garden. In February, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service added Bombus affinis, the rusty patched bumble bee, to the endangered species list. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, a third of food around the world would disappear without honeybees. The Santa Monica Public Library invites you to help build a better world by creating seed bombs with native flower seeds as part of the Adult Summer Reading program series. Once your seed bombs are complete, find a sunny piece of soil that won’t be mowed, throw the seeds, then let nature take care of the rest. Materials provided.
This program is free and all ages are welcome. Space is limited and on a first-arrival basis. For more information, visit smpl.org or contact the Santa Monica Public Library at (310) 458-8600. The Santa Monica Public Library is wheelchair-accessible. For disability-related accommodations, call Library Administration (310) 458-8606 one week prior to the event.
