We see them here in Wales too, where people have stopped using chemical fertilizers. Also, cowslips are making a comeback which is great.

I think I was just not paying attention before. I doubt the environment is any cleaner, given how few bugs and beetles I see.

You may be right but I like to think there’s still hope – and encourage and support farmers and growers who are trying to make a difference.

Bulgaria has lots of hills and mountains. There’s not much farming going on on the hills, maybe a goat or two here and there. This particular hill is not in a great shape. Reforested in the 30s, not actively maintained, and illegally harvested. I was surprised to see something fragile and pretty just blossoming against all odds.
