We need to talk about SEED BOMBS! @JaneCStout explains why seed bombs/non-native seed is a bad idea. Instead, reduce mowing, spraying... Natural regeneration from existing soil seed bank is the best way you can help the bees... #AllIrelandPollinatorPlan pollinators.ie/wildflowers-t…

The Irish Heritage Minister @josephamadigan needs to intervene to stop footpath tree felling by Local Councils to avoid opportunistic insurance claims caused by the complicity of SOLICITORS, DOCTORS & JUDICIARY . Next will it be SWINGS in playgrounds?

This is what all our roundabouts, verges & banks could look like at this time of year. Congratulations to @MayoCoCo (I think it is your roundabout?) This is so refreshing to see. No need to cut at this time of year. Low maintenance native #wildflowers for #pollinators & rd users
