‪Fukuoka style seed balls for no till farming‬‏


http://www.permies.com

Brian Kerkvliet of Inspiration Farm in Bellingham, Washington shows how to make Fukuoka style seed balls. A mixture of clay, compost and seeds. The balls can be tossed into existing crops. Some people use see balls (or larger "seed bombs") as a form of "guerilla gardening": toss the balls into areas that are desolate and could use some flowers/edibles.
