🌱 Anthobees Meadow Preparation Days 🐝
We’re starting to prepare two small meadow areas at Testsite, near Ossinlampi pond, as part of the Anthobees community meadow & pollinator project.
📅 Choose a day
Sunday 4 October 2026
15:00–17:00
Sunday 11 October 2026
15:00–17:00
You can join either day, depending on what works for you.
And you don't need to stay for the whole session — even 30 minutes of help is very welcome!
🌿 What will we do?
We’ll begin preparing the two meadow areas for autumn sowing. The work will involve things such as:
preparing suitable areas for sowing
🌱 working the soil where needed
🌿 managing some of the existing vegetation
🌼 creating suitable conditions for meadow plants
🐝 learning about the sites and thinking about how we can support local biodiversity
This is a hands-on community activity, so come ready to get a little dirty!
🐝 Who can join?
Everyone is welcome!
You don't need to be part of the Anthobees project and you don't need previous gardening, permaculture or ecology experience.
You can come for:
the whole 2-hour session
one hour
or even just 30 minutes
Every bit of help counts. 🌱
🥪 Snacks
Plant-based snacks will be provided during the session.
🌼 Why are we doing this?
Anthobees is about more than simply growing flowers. We want to create two small community meadows that become places where we can learn about plants, insects and pollinators, observe how the ecosystem changes over time, and create something together as a community.
The meadow preparation is just the beginning — later we’ll sow the seeds, observe flowering and pollinators, photograph and identify species, and continue caring for the sites together.
Come for an afternoon, help us get started, and be part of creating something together! 🌱🐝
