No Mow May – What’s Bedford Thinking?

The Boston Globe recently published an article about a new movement called “No Mow May.” No Mow May: What to know about the campaign to help your garden become a pollinator’s paradise [paywall]– Boston Globe May 8, 2023. This movement started in the United Kingdom to help pollinators and it’s had lots of publicity, both pro and con. Another article from the Associated Press says the sentiment is good, but the no mowing policy doesn’t really help. No Mow May? Good intentions, bad approach, critics say – AP May 4, 2023. 

Are those participating really doing it to help the pollinators or is this just a good excuse not to do a chore you don’t want to?

For whatever the reason, “What’s Bedford Thinking?”
