Episode 36 - Talking with Richard Brown & Mary Ellis about lawn ecology and the benefits of scything your lawns
Description
Richard is a botanist, ecologist and member of the Scythe Association of Britain and Ireland. Mary is a strong advocate for wildlife and semi-professional scyther. We talk about lawn and meadow ecology, the No-Mow-May campaign and the benefits of hand-scything. We're well into July Now, so sadly any May practices will have to be implemented in 2023!
(P.S. - the "explicit" content is just a little swear word and the name of a public Instagram account. Nothing to be afraid of!)
