I'm really proud of my parents for growing this 'meadow' where once there was the most sad patch lawn. I explained the benefits of not mowing your lawn to my dad last year, and he really got into it. In the 2 years they have been in their house they have transformed the most boring patch of lawn into this meadow, lots of fruit trees, and multiple veggie beds.

@HeatherInNZ here’s another one for your dad -
@peterbrown @HeatherInNZ Please can I put in a word in favour of wasps too. They are just as important but bees have a better PR department!😉
