Today we start with a lovely Mother's Day present. We make seed balls especially for mothers who love wild flowers to pick. Your mom doesn't have to have a garden because these balls also do well in a large flower pot on your balcony. Or - also fun - in your sidewalk garden! Today we make natural clay and tomorrow we turn it into seed balls.
