Put away the lawn mower! Bay Bulls asks residents to stop cutting weeds, to help feed the bees
Town council opting to let weeds grow in front of town hall as example to community
CBC News · Posted: May 31, 2018 10:30 AM NT | Last Updated: May 31, 2018
A town on Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula is asking its residents to hold off on mowing their lawns so that bees can have more time to feed on the weeds that grow there.
Bay Bulls launched its Pardon the Weeds, We’re Feeding the Bees campaign after seeing social media posts from local gardening store Pat’s Plants & Gardens. The posts described how mowing your lawn early in the season can cut off a crucial food supply for local bee populations.
