Garden Seed Ball Recipe
6 pieces construction paper, assorted colors
1 package of native flower seeds
Food processor or very good blender
Scissors
Water
Cut paper into 1-inch squares and place in a small dish categorized by color.
Cover each dish of paper with water and soak for 20 minutes.
Take one of the bowls and wring out the water halfway. Put the half-wet paper in a food processor and pulse into a pulp. Repeat with all the paper colors and return the pulp into each of the bowls, again separated by color.
Sprinkle seeds into each bowl of paper. Mix the seeds in and press the pulp and seeds into balls. If the pulp is too dry, put a few sprinkles of water onto the pulp. It will help it to hold a ball shape better.
Allow the seed balls to dry overnight on a sheet pan.
