Make poppy seed balls on Labor Day
At Big Oak Nursery event, everyone can help the state flower
Let your kids (and you, too) get their hands dirty while helping to spread California’s state flower. Make poppy seed balls, a super easy way to plant these beautiful orange blooms.
Big Oak Nursery will host this fun event at 10 a.m. Labor Day, Sept. 2.
“The soil we wrap the seeds in provides protection from harsh weather, birds and rodents who eat the seeds, and retains moisture,” says the nursery.
Once poppies get established, they’ll be back spring after spring.
Registration is $10; sign up at www.bigoaknursery.com.
Big Oak Nursery is located at 10071 Grant Line Road, Elk Grove. Call (916) 686-1180 for more details.
