PTP Library Presentation #4

Seed Ball Making

February 2024

In February of 2024, we partnered with Play Frisco and made seed balls with the Nature’s Nurturers club! Seed balls are tiny balls consisting of native plant seeds, clay, and dirt and are an extremely effective way to restore ecosystems. Once dispersed in ecosystems, they break down and allow for the growth of native plants. In the end, were able to make 335 seed balls which would create over a 1,000 plants in the future! Thank you, Play Frisco!

PTP Library Presentation #2

January 2024

Following our first library presentation, we were offered the opportunity to continue presenting in the Frisco Public Library! So, in January of 2024, we started a new monthly series at the library! Our series is about spreading awareness about the Blackland Prairie, including restoration efforts, native plants/animals, etc. To kickstart the series, we condensed our PtP presentation and operated a table at the front entrance of the library. We handed out brochures to the people entering and informed them about our cause. We hand so much fun presenting and were able to reach over 70 people! Thank you, FPL!
