Make Your Own Meadow

Join us to Make Your Own Meadow in 2021!

We want to see:

  • The widespread return of wildflower meadow habitats in the county
  • Vital life and colour in our countryside
  • The development of local nature recovery networks.

Agree?

Sign up today to get involved!

With a broad network of nature reserves owned and managed by us, and over 5,600 species recorded on these reserves, we are taking action to ensure that wildlife in Wiltshire continues to thrive, including our nesting birds and essential pollinators. 

By signing up today, you will receive weekly information on:

  • How to make your own meadow
  • Where to buy locally sourced wildflower seeds and how to plant them
  • Why wildflower meadows are important and the grassland plants you might find there
  • The wildlife which depends on meadow habitats
  • Opportunities to get involved in citizen science projects
  • And more!

Count me in!

We will also send a FREE Make Your Own Meadow pack in the post to anyone who signs up in April!
