Cape Town Joins “No Mow” Movement to Let Spring Flowers Bloom
Spring is just over a month away, so to make sure the environment and wildlife thrive, the City of Cape Town is implementing a “no mow” period to let indigenous flowers and grasses bloom and go to seed.
The “no mow” movement was started in the United Kingdom during the pandemic and is known as “no mow May”. The movement was thought up by Plantlife UK. They urged people to let the local grasses and weeds grow so that bees and other wildlife could have a good food source after a hard winter.
The city issued a statement to notify residents of this intention and has opened a line of communication for neighbourhoods to reach out and join the movement.
