Event Description

BCUSU

Canal Seed Bombing & Volunteering Day

Come and throw some seed bombs to help the local bees and butterflies along our canal!
Wednesday 10 May 2023 10am - 2pm Meet at Curzon SU Reception

Join BCUSU, Careers+, and the Canal and River Trust for some wildflower planting along the Digbeth Branch canal. 

We'll be doing a litter pick along the stretch of canal by University Locks and spreading our pre-made wildflower seed bombs ready to sprout in the summer to attract our local bees and butterflies. 

Everyone is welcome, and you don't have to come for the whole 4 hours, even if you only have half an hour to spare you can pop along chuck some seed bombs around!

Want to join us but can't come from 10? Come and meet us along the canal and join in when it suits you! You'll find us under the Curzon bridge just before the Fazeley Junction, a 5 minute walk along the canal towpath from Univeristy Locks.
