Our Mission
Founded by 14-year-old Rummy Goodyear after he lost his childhood home in Pacific Palisades to the 2025 LA Wildfires, the Seed Bomb Project has three simple goals: to bring back beauty, bring back nature, and bring back hope. The fires burned 80,000 acres from Pacific Palisades to Altadena, displacing generational communities, destroying thousands of homes and businesses, and introducing toxins to the soil, water, and air. We asked ourselves: what if we could transform all this loss into something beautiful, turning burned-out lots into meadows of wildflowers?
Climate disasters take a toll on the physical and mental health of those who experience them, but they also provide powerful opportunities for growth and change. Our work is hands-on, heart forward, youth-led, and fun, embodying the natural resilience of the native plant varieties we work with. By using the seeds of fire-adapted, drought-tolerant native plants, we build capacity and resiliency into the landscape, renewing damaged landscapes, improving soil health, and strengthening the ecosystem against future challenges.
We aim to bring our workshops and program to schools and local organizations across Los Angeles, deepening a connection to one another and to the common ground we share.
