I heard an article on NPR about this group in the UK that likes to go around and land scape crappy looking public property. It was funny because they acknowledged that what they were doing was techinically illegal, but they've never been arrested for it. Probably because everyone likes plants... what I found even more interesting was when the guy talked about Seed Bombs. I've never heard of a seed bomb before.. So I found out that seed bombs are small pieces of packed soil with seeds ment to be thrown at an area to promote plant growth. interesting... heres a link of some:

has anyone heard of seed bombs? have you ever made or thrown one? O_o

I'm pretty tempted too.. theres some crappy looking pieces of land I drive by around work that could use some sprucing up.

It's an interisting idea as long as something invasive isnt introduced into the landscape

I'd throw some fern bombs into a shitty gravelly area. and nobody would pick up the seed bomb because it looks like a dog turd. X'D
