Working With Worms & Seed Bombs

Join us for a fun and hands-on program all about compost, worms, and seeds! We’ll start by talking about why composting is important and how it helps our planet. Then we'll read Compost Stew by Mary McKenna Siddals, a playful ABC book that introduces kids to the idea of composting and what goes into making healthy soil.
Next, children will meet real Red Wiggler Worms and take a peek inside a live worm bin! We’ll learn what worms eat, how they live, and how they turn food scraps into super-powered fertilizer.
To wrap up, we’ll get creative making seed bombs—little balls of clay, compost, and wildflower seeds that kids can take home to plant and help pollinators like bees and butterflies.
This program is perfect for ages 5–8 and works best in small groups. It blends story time, science, and nature play for a fun and educational experience. Program length: 45–60 minutes
