Take part in Plantlife’s National Meadows Day on Saturday 6 July 2024 by visiting your nearby meadows at their midsummer best.
This year we celebrate the value of our local biodiverse grasslands, including meadows.#NationalMeadowsDay
Wildflower meadows look their best in summer, as flowers bloom and seed heads pop under the sun. They are hugely important resources which provide a sanctuary for wildlife, lock up carbon and are vital to our wellbeing.
However, our meadows are in trouble. The majority of our ancient species-rich grasslands have been lost, and now our meadows need us more than ever.
Join Plantlife as we shout out about how important our wild plant-filled meadows are this National Meadows Day.
Here’s just a few ways you can discover your local meadows this National Meadows Day – either out and about or enjoying a virtual experience from your home.
Discover what plants are in your nearby meadows, whether it’s a wild area in your local park or church yard, or even your own lawn! See what you can find on your doorstep by using our helpful ID guide below. Why not also print off one of our spotter sheets, and see how many species you can check off.
Don’t forget to follow the countryside code when visiting green spaces to protect the delicate and rare species that call our meadows home.
Share your favourite meadows and the wild plants that live there with us on social media with #NationalMeadowsDay.
