An old idea, kept alive out West.
Back in 1973, a New York gardener named Liz Christy and her friends — the Green Guerillas — started tossing wildflower seed over fences into vacant lots. They called them "seed green-aids." One lot they cleared by hand at Bowery & Houston is still a garden today. The idea itself goes back further — a Japanese practice called tsuchi dango, seed wrapped in clay and dropped where it's needed. We didn't invent any of this. We just think it's a good idea worth keeping alive out here.
Only native, always
Wildflowers that actually grow wild out here — nothing that crowds out what was here first.
Small batch, real hands
Rolled by hand in Boise. Not a factory — just us, some clay, and a lot of seeds.
Made to give away
Simple and honest — a gift, a wedding favor, or just because.
