Notes
Sustainability:
- The pot and skewers are reusable.
- Seeds should be organic and sourced from suppliers that don't allow for neonicotinoid contamination.
- Use decorations that you already have on hand, like ribbon from your ribbon stash, moss from your yard, flowers from your own garden (dependent upon the time of year).
- Consider using native plant seeds as well!
