What does it mean to sow to the flesh mean in the bible?

Here is the scripture you refer to: For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. (Galatians 6.8) The word 'sow' refers to planting seed, so if you sow to the flesh, you are hoping for a fleshly, worldly, harvest or reward; but if you sow to the Spirit, you are hoping for a heavenly reward - everlasting life.

What did it mean in the bible that the word was made flesh?

It simply means that God's main Spokesman (the Word), became flesh; (was sent to earth and was born as a human being). There is no flesh in in the spirit realm; that's why it's called the 'spirit' realm. God is a spirit. Before the Universe existed, God existed. God is not a physical being; He is not confined by the physical laws of the Universe. God created the physical things from himself. 'In the beginning, God created heaven and earth.' But God of course existed before 'the beginning'.
