Come and be part of a global voice for wild plants and fungi
Plantlife’s No Mow May Movement is back for 2026 – help nature and let your lawn grow this May and beyond!
Meadows have shaped our history and culture for centuries, yet most have been lost – and the precious few that remain are still at risk. But there is hope, with your support we can protect what’s left and restore so much more.
Will you help protect our national treasures?
Our corporate partners benefit from 35 years of experience in nature restoration so they can achieve real impact.

Join farmer Della Fazey and Plantlife’s Farm Partnership Officer John Harold to explore the important role pastoral systems play in biodiversity, enriching landscapes and sustaining rural livelihoods.
How we care for our land is vital for biodiversity and nature restoration. Central to this is the farmers and landowners who spend their lives caring for and protecting the land and wildlife that depends on it.
What better time to put the spotlight on this than the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists and the International year of the Woman Farmer.

John Harold is Plantlife’s Farm Partnership Officer, focused on how we can help farmers deliver more for wild plants and fungi from the hard work of producing food, fuel or fibre.
John’s background includes managing a hill farm, running a conservation charity, ecological consultancy, and work on biodiversity in local planning. What links them all is a passion for looking after land so that nature can thrive.
I have had a lifelong interest in the natural environment and a career as a teacher/University lecturer in Sport Psychology. With husband John and two teenagers, in 1989 we bought a farm in the foothills of Eryri, with a diversity of relatively ‘unimproved’ habitats.
Enthusiastic for challenge, we aimed to demonstrate that conservation and farming were complementary activities, and, since retirement, have continued to tackle the task of using good livestock management to enhance the environment. The learning continues.
