Our newest edition of “What’s Up? with Michael Clish” is available for viewing and explores the topic of “No Mow May.”
In this edition, Michael interviews two members of the community-based, nonprofit group Heart of the City, Frankie Fuller and Barbara Brouwer, to learn about a pollinator-friendly program facilitated by the group. The program encourages residents of Fort Atkinson to reduce mowing and grow the grass in their backyards, allowing it to exceed the 8-inch limit set by city ordinance. The city has suspended its ordinance as it pertains to backyards only for the month of May, 2021, only. The activity is meant to help pollinators get a healthy start during this upcoming warm-weather, growing season.
