“Tsuchi Dango” or Earth Dumpling
Masanobu Fukuoka, pioneer of the “natural farming” method and author of “The One-Straw Revolution”, among other books, has greatly inspired Luvmud. Fukuoka developed the “Tsuchi Dango” or Earth Dumpling – a seed ball composed of seeds, clay, compost, and sometimes manure. This method allowed for less seeds to be used, producing stronger plants and higher crop yield. Guerrilla gardeners adopted Fukuoka’s Earth Dumpling recipe to create “seed bombs” for greening barren, abandoned urban spaces. Luvmud extends Fukuoka’s idea by leveraging the joy of person to person giving, adding humor, and connecting environmental awareness with social and economic responsibility on an individual level.
