Wildflower meadow

Wildflower meadow

by 6 years ago

Hi, I have a meadow of about 1 acre in size.  At the moment there are 20 sheep grazing on it, trying to chomp the grass down which has been growing unchecked for the last 2 years.  Ideally I would like to have wildflowers growing in there, to attract bugs, birds and bees.  Can you please advise me of the best way to achieve this?  I would have to do it all by hand, and I'd really like to see a result fairly quickly, but I do understand things take time.  There are docks in there which the sheep won't eat so there will still be some weeds left to cut down once the meadow is empty.
