No Mow May

No Mow May 

May is a critical time for hungry, newly emerged native bees. Floral resources may be hard to find, especially in urban and suburban landscapes. By allowing your grass to grow longer, and letting flowers bloom, your lawn can provide nectar and pollen to help your bee neighbors thrive. 

If you would like to participate in No Mow May, please contact the Township at Kennett.Twp@kennett.pa.us to let us know you will be letting you lawn grow for the month of May.  (You will need to resume your lawn mowing after May 31st)   

Once registered, you can pick up your No Mow May yard sign from the Kennett Library. Just ask at the circulation desk. Register Here!
