“Sow Through What You Throw” - A Seed-ball Making and Deploying project

We, Rotaract Club of Pune Mid-East, initiated an all Avenue Project inspired from the theme of the District, named “Sow Through What You Throw” - A Seedball Making and Deploying project. This project was done on an international level as we had 1 club collaborating with us from Kenya as well. Apart from them, we also had 4 other clubs collaborating from India. The importance of Seedballs : Seedballs keep the seeds safe until the right time for germination. With this technique, tons of seeds can be scattered across areas in the mountains, inaccessible to hand-planting projects. Think of them as pollen grains, only bigger. The members of all the clubs made seedballs and then deployed them in areas to afforest them. It was also a nice club bonding activity for all as everyone enjoyed their time playing with mud. We also thank Council Member, Rtr. Ratnesh Singh, District Co-International Service Director for participating in this project. We also released the joint bulletin with the clubs for this project.

Duration of Project: 12th August to 31st August
