Join Buglife and Swansea Uni for a morning of hand harvesting Yellow Rattle seed for future wildflower meadow creation.
Yellow Rattle (Rhinanthus minor) seed, known as ‘the meadow maker’ or nature’s lawnmower’ is a valuable plant for wildflower meadow creation. Join Buglife Cymru and Swansea University’s Biodiversity Officer and help us collect Yellow Rattle seed for future meadow creation at Swansea Bay Campus and other locations on the B-Line.
Please bring appropriate clothing, footwear, and gardening gloves.

This session is being delivered as part of Buglife Cymru’s Neath Port Talbot B-Lines Project- a 3-yr project, working with communities and partners to restore and create wildflower-rich habitat within the B-Lines network, supporting pollinators including nationally rare species such as the Long-horned bee and the Shrill carder bee.
The work of NPT B-Lines has been made possible by funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
Mae B-Lines Castell-nedd Port Talbot, Buglife Cymru yn brosiect 3 blynedd, sy’n gweithio gyda chymunedau a phartneriaid i adfer a chreu cynefinoedd llawn blodau gwyllt o fewn y rhwydwaith B-Lines, gan gefnogi peillwyr yn cynnwys rhywogaethau sy’n brin yn genedlaethol, fel y Wenynen gorniog a’r Gardwenynen feinlais.
Mae gwaith B-Lines C-nPT yn bosibl diolch i ariannu gan Gronfa Dreftadaeth Y Loteri Genedlaethol.
