No spray, the odd mow, let the flowers grow
Wexford Environmental Network ask Wexford County Council to keep our green area wild! Don't use pesticides like glyphosate and let our wild flowers grow.
Why is this important?
During this pandemic, many of our green areas have been allowed to grow wild, with no council mowing ongoing. Green areas have been allowed to flourish, so that we have yellows, purples, blues, whites, as well as lush green grass.
When council workers are allowed to return, we want to keep wild the areas that don't require mowing (e.g. grass verges, fields in which only the edges are walked).
Wexford is already doing great work with the "Lives Lived on the Edge" campaign and our no mow zones. Let's keep it up and do even more.
