Growing meadows,
not just lawns

Why Wildflower Meadows

Lawns replaced, biodiversity gained

A mowed lawn supports very few insect species. A wildflower meadow on the same footprint can host a far greater variety of pollinators, ground beetles, and birds — particularly during the months when conventional gardens offer little. In Poland, where intensively managed agricultural land covers much of the countryside, private garden meadows provide meaningful habitat patches within urban and suburban areas.

The transition does not have to be all-or-nothing. Even a 10–15 square metre strip along a fence or at the edge of a lawn, left to develop with native annuals and short-lived perennials, changes the character of a garden visibly within a single growing season.
