The Rocket Seeds Are Growing. So Is the Lesson. 🚀🌱
When Farmer Lundyn (aka the real-life daughter of Nichole Dube) planted tomato seeds from the original NASA SEEDS Experiment, the first surprise came fast.
They sprouted.
Tomato seeds that spent six years in space and returned to Earth aboard the Shuttle Columbia in 1990 still had life inside them.
But now comes the even better part.
They are growing.
And in many ways, so is the story.
What started as a seed experiment to celebrate the launch of Macie and the Magic Rocket Seeds has become something much bigger:
A 13-year-old took a chance on seeds she wasn’t sure would sprout.
She watched them grow.
Then she brought that curiosity back to her old elementary school, read the book to K–3 students, and shared the science, the story, and the wonder with younger kids.
That’s the real magic.
Not just that the seeds grew.
That she grew with them.
From planting…
to caring…
to teaching…
to leading.
That is exactly why the Macieverse exists.
To help kids see food, farming, science, nature, and exploration as something they can touch, understand, and be part of.
And now, to celebrate the launch of Macie and the Magic Rocket Seeds, we’re giving families and classrooms a chance to grow their own curiosity, too.

Sometimes that’s when the growing begins. 💚 🌱 🚀
