Meadows and other grasslands are an intrinsic part of the UK’s natural and cultural heritage: rich in landscape character, farming, folklore and history, they are as much a part of our heritage as the works of Shakespeare. Its no wonder wildflower meadow planting is enjoying a huge vogue in gardening; they look beautiful and attract wildlife, particularly threatened pollinators.

Save Our Wild Isles Community Fund
97% of our wildflower meadows have been lost since the 1930s,* and that’s just one of the reasons why nature needs us now more than ever. Our £1 million Save Our Wild Isles Community Fund is here to support UK community groups taking action for nature. Support a project near you and we’ll give £2 for every £1 you donate.* Explore the projects taking action for nature at avivacommunityfund.co.uk/explore-save-our-wild-isles *T&Cs apply

Agriculture amounts to over 70% of land use in the UK and as a result, we have suffered significant environmental damage. UK wildlife habitats have been eroded with the loss of hedgerows, meadows and field margins. The extensive use of pesticides and insecticides and monoculture farming has damaged our natural ecosystems. As a result, we need to take extra steps to help our wildlife. Plant your own wildflower garden with our seed packs.
The Importance of Biodiversity in Food
Roughly 75% of the world’s food comes from just 12 plants and 5 animal species, and that staggering lack of biodiversity ripples across every aspect of food production. One way to support biodiversity is to choose organic - organic farming practices support increased agricultural biodiversity. The ripple effect can start with you!
