How To Make Seed Parcels

Watch the video above to find out how to make your own seed parcels or follow the simple steps below. 

What you will need:

  • Mixing bowl
  • Clay soil (luckily this is the type of soil in Milton Keynes so just get digging!)
  • Compost
  • Seed mix (we recommend British Wildflower and grass seed)
  • Water

How to make your seed parcels:

  1. Put the clay soil into your mixing bowl
  2. Add a small amount of seeds to the bowl
  3. Add compost and mix together
  4. Gradually add water to the mixture until it is the right consistency to form a ball
  5. Form the mixture into balls and put to one side to dry
  6. Once dry and hard, your seed parcels and ready to be planted!
