Eco gifting to support grassroots “Eco Club Pledge” initiative
In early March 2025, the Berks & Bucks Football Association (BBFA) ordered 200 Beebombs to support its new “Eco Club Pledge” initiative, aimed at encouraging local clubs to promote sustainability and environmental care. As the not‑for‑profit governing body for football across Berkshire and Buckinghamshire, BBFA – based at Bee House, Milton Park – places strong emphasis on developing the grassroots game while safeguarding the environment .
The 200 wildflower seedballs, each hand‑tagged with BBFA branding, were earmarked for distribution to the first clubs joining the Pledge program. The goal: to help clubs create pollinator‑friendly greenspaces at grounds and training facilities. BBFA’s social media highlighted “Bee Bombs” alongside litter‑pick kits in their pledge‑pack announcement (). This eco‑driven gifting supports a tangible, positive impact – a simple gesture that plants the seeds (literally) of community engagement and biodiversity.
Each Beebomb contains native UK wildflower seeds, clay, and soil – no plastic, no planting hassle. Just scatter and let nature flourish. This gift resonates with BBFA’s mission of “connecting people, changing lives” through football and environmental stewardship
