I always think of All Things Bright and Beautiful re growing things... can't remember enough of the words to find 'seeds' in there, though. But it's a jolly little tune.

poppy - there's a harvest song that goes something like:

First the farmer sows the seed...(times 3)
Thank you for the harvest

Chorus: Thank you for the harvest time (times 3)
Thank you for the harvest

It takes you through all the different steps re. growing a crop. Can't remember which hymn book it is in though - BBC for Schools possibly?

what about ?teach me, my God and king, in all things thee to see, and what I do in everything to do it as for thee.? George Herbert

That's "Oats peas beans and barley grow", miaou

oats peas beans and barley grow
oats peas beans and barley grow
nor you nor I nor anyone know
how oats peas beans and barley grow

First the farmer sows the seed
Then he stands and takes his ease
Turns around and claps his hands
and something something views his land

That would be perfect if you could find the words, poppy.
