The Municipality of Chelsea is proud to announce that it will be participating for the first time this year in the " May Without a Mower " challenge also known as the " Dandelion Challenge ". As such, we are encouraging Chelsea residents to delay getting out their mowers and let their grass grow throughout the month of May. This initiative aims to protect and support pollinating insects and encourage biodiversity.
By delaying the first mowing for a few weeks, these insects have time to regain their strength to perform their important role of pollination. As they pollinate from flower to flower, they spread pollen that allows the reproduction of plants and favors food production.
Do you dare to participate in the challenge?
