This May, give your mower a break and let the grass grow! 🐝🌼 In Powick Parish, we’re encouraged to take part in Plantlife’s citizen science project by counting the number of weed species in our lawns. 🌿
By letting weeds flower, you’re helping pollinators like bees thrive – and they need all the help they can get! 🌻 Bees and other insects rely on these flowers for food, and their numbers are in decline.
Not ready to let your whole lawn go wild? No worries! Simply leave a small patch or “island” to grow and count how many different species you spot in a square meter. Submit your results to Plantlife’s website and be part of this important project! 💚
👉 Submit your results here: https://www.plantlife.org.uk/join-no-mow-may/
Let’s work together to support our local wildlife. Who’s in for #NoMowMay? 🙋♂️🙋♀️ #SaveTheBees #PollinatorFriendly #NoMowMay #Plantlife
