Herefordshire Meadows is a registered charity whose charitable objectives are to:
- conserve, restore and create flower-rich grasslands in Herefordshire in particular, but not exclusively, by promoting sustainable land management systems.
- advance the education of the public on the benefits of flower-rich grasslands and the need to conserve them.
We work collaboratively across the whole of the Herefordshire landscape holding events and discussions on how to manage, create and restore meadows to benefit wildlife, soil and water quality, historic features, natural flood management and livestock farming businesses.
We are building up a network of local people with skills in plant identification, management advice and contracting services for grassland management.
Herefordshire Meadows activities are open to all, space permitting, and you can join the mailing list to be notified about our activities by emailing us with your contact details.
