The chain-link fence at the far end of the schoolyard is covered
in berries that birds love to eat. I’ve heard that birds will digest the
fruit of the berry. Then the seed will pass in their droppings and
might produce a new plant if it lands on warm, moist soil.
It’s no wonder so many
weeds grow in our schoolyard
garden beds. Seeds have so
many different ways to travel,
are so plentiful, and are
everywhere. That’s what I’ve
discovered about seeds in my
schoolyard. What can you
discover in yours?
