- Free event (admission applies)
This national meadows day, come along and help us to create new wildflower meadows.
We’ll be hand-gathering yellow rattle seed, then preparing a field and spreading the collected seed in the afternoon.
Yellow rattle is fantastic for kick-starting meadow creation, and this will help with the North Devon grasslands project, creating 1200ha of wildflower meadows.
Across North Devon since 2022, 90 hectares of species rich grasslands have been created by our ranger teams to provide a source of wildflower seed to support further creation of habitats for nature.
