Abandoning your lawnmower for a month and participating in No Mow May isn’t for everyone. Perhaps you have a small backyard and don’t have a lawn, local HMO restrictions may prevent you from taking part, or you may not like your patch looking unruly.
The idea behind No Mow May is to encourage gardeners to give up mowing their lawns for one month to allow the flowers to grow, which provide rich food for pollinators. So, while you may not be keen on seeing dandelions and clover in your lawn, the bees love the nectar and pollen.
