Silk Dress in Rivermint

The water meadows at Thyme are a very special place. As you stroll through the long grasses, buttercups, and orchids, the air is filled with the heady scent of wild water mint. On the river banks, yellow flag iris bloom and willows gently sway in the breeze. In winter, the land often floods, transforming the landscape and renewing the rich ecosystem. Meadowlands are the UK's most biodiverse habitat, supporting incredible ecosystems of birdlife, insects, and mammals. Through our work with ornithologists, we know that the meadows are home to an array of migratory birds including warblers and cuckoos. Travelling from far flung places such as Sub-Saharan Africa, these birds are a golden thread to habitats across the world.
