If you're seed bombing with non-native plants, please be mindful of not spreading invasives. Saying fuck you to a golf course by planting things that also kill or crowd out native species is literally no different than the course itself.
"But it's edible" "But it's medicinal" "doesn't matter, its #permaculture bro"
Those are settler arguments of pragmatism, and are frankly the same shit that got us Here™️ in the first place. Please, slow the fuck down, research natives, especially ones that grow not just in your "zone" but also the specifics of the area you're doing said seed bombing. Ones that NATIVE pollinators eat, live on, etc. Check back in on your shit. Otherwise, it just ends up being performative, or a cool story, or even harmful if invasives are involved. The time, slowness, and intention will make it all the more powerful.
There are a lot of folks doing this work. These are Indigenous understandings that unfortunately have been largely lost or watered down due to genocide, and therefore, are difficult to find clear information on.
Here's a resource list from an NPO (ugh, yes i know) that is a decent starting point, especially if you're just looking for quick seedbomb ideas on so-called "North America" or Turtle Island: https://xerces.org/pollinator-resource-center
If you want to go deeper, you can see which invertibrates are at-risk in your area, figure out what they like to eat, lay eggs, live on, and plant some of that.
