Come and Lie in the Hay !

By  Flora Gregory 2018
‘Come and Lie in the Hay !’ is an invitation to do just that. While lying in the hay, there is time to reflect on the loss of our relationship with the land over the last 100 years, and the loss of 97% of our wild flower meadows since WWII. Intensification of farming methods – ploughing, drainage, reseeding, and fertiliser and herbicide, has resulted in an important loss of habitat for a huge diversity of wildlife.
