Party Bag Seed Packet

£1.20 Inc VAT




Description

Children are the future custodians of our planet, so we need to educate them to love and nurture nature.  These party bag seed packets are a great way to start that journey!  Seeds are a far better party bag gift than plastic toys that will be played with for a few seconds and go to landfill.  With seeds, children can see the fruits of their labour and then learn about the creatures who come to visit the wildflowers.

Seeds are a great educational way for children to say thanks for coming to my party!  The seed packet is recycled and made from quality paper, and contains UK wildflower seeds that are perfect for butterflies and bees and other insects. The seeds are in a glassine paper sachet, not plastic and foil, so the packet and sachet are completely recyclable after the seeds have been sown.  The seed packets measure 9 x 12 cm.  Sowing instructions are printed on the back.

What is glassine paper? Glassine paper is an eco-friendly and plastic-free alternative to mass-produced heat-sealed plastic and foil/paper sachets.  Unlike those sachets glassine paper can be recycled and is biodegradable.  It is also resistant to moisture and will keep the seeds dry in the main packet.

About the Seeds

These seeds are easy to grow! There are 7 species of wildflower in this mix, which we have created ourselves. They are also UK wildflower species, grown in the UK and fully traceable.  Our seed supplier is also inspected annually by DEFRA – so you can be sure you are getting quality seeds. You will get about a gram or so of seeds, enough to create a 1 metre square wildflower patch.

Seed content is as follows: Ox-eye Daisy, Selfheal, Lesser Knapweed, Wild Carrot, Ladies Bedstraw, Musk Mallow, Teasel.
