Last weekend we went to see a meadow in the grounds of a local convent. It was open to the public for the weekend. We met a man there, who knew all about meadow flowers and grasses and butterflies.....and he said that he and his wife would be interested in having a look at our field. ( This is starting to sound like a dodgy story!!!!) Anyway....they came along on Sunday,with a clipboard and 2 dogs and had a look around to see what we already have growing in the field. About half way up ...in the middle...we seem to have a little meadow already. They were impressed and recommended that we join the Meadows Group in this area. We have a bit of a problem with bracken and nettles around the edges of the field...are nettles supposed to be 8 foot tall? We will mow the field back in a week...but leave our mini meadow to keep growing.
Joining a meadows group....its funny where life takes you.
