Wildflower meadows are some of our most important habitats. Across Wales’ Designated Landscapes, you’ll find meadows bursting into life. Now is the perfect time to visit one near you.

🌱 Stick to the path and leave no trace, the flowers (and pollinators) will thank you for it.

Mae dolydd blodau gwyllt yn llawn bywyd ar hyn o bryd, gyda digon o leoedd arbennig i’w darganfod ar draws ein tirweddau dynodedig.

🚶 Ewch i ymlwed, cadwch at y llwybrau, a gadewch i natur wneud ei gwaith.

Mae glöynnod byw a gwyfynod yn rhan allweddol o’n bywyd gwyllt, ac yn arwydd o gynefinoedd iach - i’w gweld ar hyd a lled ein Tirweddau Dynodedig.

Trwy adael corneli gwyllt yn yr ardd neu blannu blodau brodorol, gallwn ni i gyd eu helpu i ffynnu. 🦋

🦋 Wales is alive with butterflies and moths — signs of healthy habitats.

From shady woodlands to upland hills, these winged wonders feed, rest, and pollinate.

Want to help? Leave wild patches, plant natives, and tread lightly.

🦋 Wales’ landscapes are alive with colour and quiet movement this time of year.

Across Wales, you’ll find these winged wonders in meadows, dunes, and even upland hillsides.

Want to help them thrive? Leave wild patches in your garden, plant native flowers, and take care when out walking.

🍃 Wales Nature Week is a chance to celebrate the incredible nature all around us, and the people helping it thrive.

But it’s not just about wildlife, it’s about the people too - so many are helping nature take root and recover in their corner of Wales.

Mae glöynnod byw a gwyfynod yn rhan allweddol o’n bywyd gwyllt – yn dangos lle mae cynefinoedd iach, ac yn helpu i beillio planhigion gwyllt.

Trwy adael corneli gwyllt yn yr ardd neu blannu blodau brodorol, gallwn ni i gyd eu helpu i ffynnu. 🦋

Mae natur Cymru yn rhan annatod o’n tirweddau dynodedig – ac o’n bywyd bob dydd.

Ar Wythnos Natur Cymru, rydym yn dathlu’r bobl sy’n gofalu amdani, yn ei gwarchod, ac yn ei mwynhau.

Developed in collaboration with farmers, Ffermio Bro supports practical, place-based projects that strengthen rural culture, improve farm resilience and restore nature – all led from the land, by those who know it best.
