I live in the suburbs of New York City, and having a green lawn is kind of a necessity, but I wondered if there was an alternative. A friend of mine who is convinced his dog died after eating pesticide-treated grass told me he was letting his lawn go natural. That intrigued me, and after doing a little research, I bought this book. It is eye opening! There are certainly environmental benefits to planting a meadow (not least of which is reduction in noise pollution from all the lawnmowers and leaf blowers I have been listening to during my pandemic wfh), but there is a dramatic cost savings from cutting water usage and eliminating lawn maintenance. The thing I couldn’t get my head around was how do I do this in the suburbs? Will the neighbors think I’ve gone nuts? And what about ticks! All my questions were answered in the chapter on “Community Building.” I don’t have to go all “meadow” right away, I can go a little bit at a time. In fact, I realize I’ve been doing something like this over the past few years, reducing the size of the lawn and adding new beds of flowers, including some of the flowers in this book like Purple Coneflowers and Black-eyed Susans. As for ticks, keep some mowed barriers around the meadow grasses, so people and animals don’t come in contact with them. This book is a step by step guide on how to prep the site, seed the ground and maintain the meadow going forward (mow it once a year...yeah, that’s it). Well written, a quick read and informative. I’m inspired to plant some grasses in a little section in the back yard this fall and see how it goes from there. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ encouraging, experienced meadow-making wisdom *by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2020* I've been spending most of lockdown reading books and articles on ecological growing, and this is truly the best book to purchase or give to someone wanting to convert any amount of lawn or land into prairie/meadow. My favorite part: his stories about learning experiences from various meadow installations. We get to benefit from the challenges he encountered!Everyone has a slightly different take on what is truly ecological, but the one part I probably won't follow is the "don't use herbicides ever" for establishing a prairie. I've tried solarization, occultation (depriving weeds of sunlight), and tilling in a small portion of my lawn. (Irish landscape design guru Mary Reynolds is against tilling and calls it "ripping the skin of mother earth," but then you've got tilthing which is very light tilling, probably what this author is recommending.) The bermuda grass is out of control in my Nashville yard, no matter what organic method I try, and the land I'm converting to prairie is a very awkward slope. Perennial weeds can live up to two years with no sunlight! I don't have the time or energy to cover half an acre with black plastic for two years and then wait three more years for the meadow to fill in. So I'm going to follow the lead of anti-neonicotinoids Prairie Moon Nursery and prairie ecologist Neil Diboll and still use a bit of glyphosate to prep my plot. Glyphosate remains in the soil up to 2/3 of a year and I would never use it near a water source, but a once-over to really kill the invasives that will threaten my future meadow feels okay even to my nature-loving instincts.Get this book! You will enjoy it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stop mowing and start meadowing! *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2020* Owen Wormser's new book, Lawns into Meadows, lays out a simple argument for turning away from the polluting effects of lawn maintenance to the regenerative experience of growing a meadow. Mention a meadow, and most of us envision a site of acres stretching out to a long view. My husband and I, however, wanted simply to convert our front lawn of approximately 20' x 40' into a low-maintenance but attractive approach to our home in an old New England town.Lawns into Meadows tells how to evaluate your site, design your meadow, prepare and plant the area, and move forward with meadow maintenance. Most enjoyable is a catalog of 21 meadow plants, with engaging descriptions of each, as well as specific bloom times, how to choose plants appropriate to a given site and growing conditions necessary to help plants thrive.Wormser's first hand experiences with meadow building and a practical Q&A section round out the book. He encourages readers to leave a bit--or a lot--of lawn behind in order to protect the planet and benefit the pollinators who share our world. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/191747924-lawns-into-meadows-growing-a-regenerative-landscape](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/191747924-lawns-into-meadows-growing-a-regenerative-landscape) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
