Teens, Learn to ‘Seed Bomb’ Your Garden at Ocean County Library Toms River Branch

May 08, 2023

TOMS RIVER – Homemade seed bombs are the quick, easy way to fill a garden with colorful flowers that attract pollinators and decorate the yard. Teens can learn how to make them at the Ocean County Library Toms River Branch, 3 PM Tuesday, May 23.

The program in the Green Room will teach the steps for creating a cluster of seeds that can liven up a plant pot, flowerbed, or an entire garden. The flowers draw the attention of butterflies, bees, and other creatures that transfer pollen and sustain many crops.

Members of the Garden Club of Toms River will show young adults, aged 13 to 18, how to make their own seed bombs to take home and toss in the garden, then wait for rain and watch the transformation.

Please register at www.theoceancountylibrary.org/events to attend this free program, sponsored by the Friends of the Ocean County Library – Toms River. For more information, drop by the OCL Toms River Branch, 101 Washington Street, or call (732) 349-6200.
