Ever wanted a kinder grenade that explodes in a flurry of flowers that are great for bees? Well, even if that wasn’t something you could even dream of the great guys at Kabloom have made them! You can pick from us as your local stockist of Kablom Seedbom in Halifax.

These magnificent bombs are a fantastic project or gift. Compostable seed bombs are designed to bring fun to urban and rural areas. They are also awesome for the insect population, helping wildflowers grow and bees pollinate.
