Often, there are loads of different plants quietly growing in grassy areas. But because they get mown before they can flower, you probably wouldn't even notice they're there. So while we're getting our Community Growing Scheme started, Hackney Council have agreed to relax the mowing and simply wait and see what turns up. Already we've noticed more flowers on the site than ever. And we're not the only ones - bees and butterflies have been spotted taking advantage of their new food supply too. So the meadow is working already!
