No Mow May

Join The Authority as we participate in No Mow May! No Mow May is a conservation initiative first popularized by Plantlife, an organization based in the United Kingdom. In an effort to increase New Jersey’s bee population, experts suggest leaving your property unmown for the month of May. Leaving your property unmown during this time creates habitat for early season pollinators and other wildlife. Studies show that participating properties had a three-times higher bee species richness, and five-times higher bee abundance, than properties that had been mowed.
