SB2310001: Leapfrogging Upwards
Seeds: Sword Bean, Amaranthus, Purslane, Basil

We often think of frogs as earthbound creatures—amphibious by nature, leaping over water & land. There is so much we don’t imagine them being—arboreal, for example!

Frogs like the monkey frogs, tree frogs, & even some bush or shrub frogs spend large parts of their life among tall trees & even bamboo! Endemic to the Western Ghats, the rare white-spotted bush frog breeds inside shoots of bamboo. Father frogs look after the eggs, which hatch directly into froglets!

The frog in this band, playful & googly-eyed, has a tongue made from the sword bean seed which peeks out whenever its head is pressed. The world will be revealed if we pay attention, it seems to tell us. All we need is curiosity, & ready…set…jump!

Description

Only WE, humans, are conscious. WE are intelligent. WE have feelings & families & histories…

All of these beliefs have been challenged & it means that “WE” need to expand beyond the human realm & imagine a new way of co-existing in this world. To accept this shift in our consciousness—to always be becoming—is our essence.

Like a cocooned caterpillar, the blossoming bud, water flowing downriver, or the continuous rounding of a stone—there is a tender beauty in evolving.

These bands are also ever-evolving—a bond from the transforming ecosystem in our farm to the quiet changes in all of us. “Pay attention to the transformation within & without,” they seem to say. It will surprise & nourish us on this journey.

Plantable Seed Bands handcrafted from naturally dyed & handspun yarn of organically grown, indigenous cotton. Plantable Seed Papers on which bands are wrapped are handmade, up-cycled & biodegradable.
