Wildflower meadow under construction
Plans are underway to create a wildflower meadow at Government House.
It’s part of efforts to use the governor’s official residence in new ways.
Sir John Lorimer says a field on the land is ‘perfect’ for the idea.
He says it’s time to expand how the area is used.
Phil Gawne spoke to the governor in his role as a judge at the Farm Conservation Awards:
