As well as the links on the left side of this page, go to the Knowledge Zone index page on Restoration and management to see some of Flora locale's leaflets on restoring wild meadows, and to find out more about grasslands and their wildlife. There is also a free laminated pocket guide to help you identify meadow wildflowers (see the Flora page) - this is available online or free as a printed publication from Flora locale.
Need grazing animals or other practical help: PONT: Pori Natur a Threftadaeth (the Welsh arm of the UK Grazing Animals Project) may be able to assist. The Grazing Animals Website also has lots more information about grazing.
Do you have experience on managing Wild Meadows and want to share your experience with others? Or perhaps you'd like to restore Wild Meadows or market speciality meat raised on wild flower grassland? This section of the website will be as good as its contributors - so do get in touch. If you need to know more about wild meadows then try looking through the resources linked via this page or the Knowledge Zone. We will try to link with as many resources as possible to help you in your efforts to sustainably manage and restore Wild Meadows.
If you farm Wild Meadows in Wales, would you be interested in setting up a cooperative to market meat from wild meadows? If so, please contact the Wild Meadows Project Officer wildmeadows.ivy@googlemail.com. Ivy may also be able to provide advice (or point you to a local organisation) on managing or restoring Wild Meadows, or if you are considering selling a Wild Meadow.
