Aberdeenshire Council is expanding the Plantlife initiative, No Mow May, beyond just May, adapting it to the climatic conditions of northeast Scotland, where less is in bloom during May than further south. This initiative helps boost biodiversity by letting grass grow longer, wildflowers can bloom, providing essential food and habitats for insects, birds, and small mammals. Additionally, this approach contributes to climate action by storing carbon in undisturbed soils and improving resilience against extreme weather events.
No Mow Meadows will be left to grow between April and October, with only paths and edges regularly cut. It will be cut and collected at the end of season.
We are looking for feedback on areas across Aberdeenshire proposed for No Mow Meadows in 2025.
The No Mow Meadow sites can be viewed on this Google map and your comments can be shared in this survey. Click on the pin for a detailed plan of the proposed area. In the survey you can also give site suggestions for potential future meadows.
