A response to overgrown grass or neglected areas that could use some native wildflowers...A system for increasing pollinator and wildlife value in existing grasslands.

Lots of folks contact us wondering what to do with overgrown grassy areas that lack native plants. Often this includes areas that are too big, too difficult, or not economically feasible to completely clear of existing vegetation and start from scratch.

After several years of testing at multiple sites across the Northwest, we formulated a mix of just wildflowers – specifically the wildflowers we’ve successfully overseeded into existing grass and thatch.

This is a low-cost and low-input option for adding more biological richness to areas such as:

  • Old fields
  • Roadside ditches and embankments
  • Vacant lots
  • Post-industrial sites
  • Marginal areas previously disturbed by encampments, logging, or construction
  • Retired hayfields and pastures (note: this isn’t a mix for livestock)
  • Abandoned or overgrown lawns

For best success, and for accurate expectations, please note the following:

1. This is a mix for full sun, or a mix of full sun and partial/dappled shade.

2. No inert material needs to be added before sowing. These are relatively dense, heavy seeds that can work their way down through some thatch to reach and settle upon the soil surface.

3. Progress with overseeding wildflowers into grassy areas can be slow. We recommend repeating the process annually, or at least every few years, if possible. This, combined with optimal installation and management (see below) can slowly change the plant community, adding color, diversity, and biological richness.

4. Overseeding into diverse grass populations (e.g. mixtures of timothy, orchard grass, lawn fescues, sweet vernal grass, etc.) will typically result in more success than overseeding solid monocultures of invasive grasses (e.g. reed canary grass or rat tail fescue).

Installation and Management: Seed should be hand-scattered or mechanically broadcast over the existing grass sward in late summer through early winter.

Initial Site Preparation may consist of the following approaches:

1. OKAY: Seed can be simply scattered into existing grass in late summer. This approach will work best with repeated annual overseeding

2. BETTER: Mow the site with a thatching lawn mower blade in mid-summer to finely chop-up the clippings. Repeated mowing at the lowest possible height is ideal to both break down the clippings and thatch as much as possible, and to open up more bare ground between the existing grass. Then, in late-summer, the site can be overseeded.

3. BEST: Mow the site as low as possible in early fall with a bagging mower, or cut the field for hay, and remove the bagged clippings or hay bales to compost them away from the meadow. Then, overseed the area before significant grass re-growth occurs.

Following the initial first-year seeding, you should perform active ongoing-management of the meadow for best performance:

1. OKAY: Actively watch for and remove aggressive weed invaders such as Canada thistle and blackberry. Continue to overseed the meadow in late summer every year if possible, or at least every few years. Consider adding yellow rattle at a rate of 1-2 packets per 100-sqft to further reduce grass vigor and increase wildflowers.

2. BETTER: Actively watch for and remove aggressive weed invaders such as Canada thistle and blackberry. Mow the site with a thatching lawn mower blade in early fall to finely chop-up the clippings. Repeated mowing at the lowest possible height is ideal to both break down the clippings and thatch as much as possible, and to open up more bare ground between the existing grass. Continue to overseed the meadow immediately after mowing every year if possible, or at least every few years. Consider adding yellow rattle at a rate of 1-2 packets per 100-sqft to further reduce grass vigor and increase wildflowers.

3. BEST: Actively watch for and remove aggressive weed invaders such as Canada thistle and blackberry. Mow the site as low as possible in early fall with a bagging mower, or cut the field for hay, and remove the bagged clippings or hay bales to compost them away from the meadow (composting will allow any viable insect eggs or larva to emerge). Continue to overseed the meadow immediately after mowing every year if possible, or at least every few years. Consider adding yellow rattle at a rate of 1-2 packets per 100-sqft to further reduce grass vigor and increase wildflowers.

A Note on Expectations: Neglected and overgrown grassy areas may have decades of dormant viable grass and weed seed in the soil (hundreds of pounds per acre). Reintroducing native wildflowers into such spaces is a process, not a magic switch. The more active weeding, annual mowing, and overseeding invested in such sites, the more success you will have. Although results can take several years to become increasingly visible – with active weeding, annual mowing, and late season overseeding – most grasslands can be improved.

Extremely well made travel vacuum bags
Size: 9 Combo Travel Size
These are great kits for Travel and storage. I now have two sets. The pump works very well. Small enough for carry on. One very small dislike, There are small clips that slide across the top closer. But nothing to stop them either end. So may fall off. But I would highly recommend them. 9 out of 10 for me.

Good Space Savings, but the Bag Zippers don't hold very well
Size: 15 Combo Travel Size
I purchased these Vacbird travel vacuum bags mainly to save space in carry-on luggage and cruise packing, and the overall concept works well. The included rechargeable air pump is compact and convenient for travel, and the compression bags can significantly reduce the amount of space taken up by clothing and soft items when sealed properly. The bags themselves are easy to fill and compress, and they can definitely help organize luggage more efficiently for longer trips. For bulky clothing like jackets, sweatshirts, or extra layers, the space savings are noticeable. The rechargeable pump is also more convenient than manually rolling air out of the bags repeatedly. The reason this isn’t a higher rating is the zipper closure quality. The zippers feel much weaker than they should for a product designed around repeated compression and travel handling. Several closures required extra care to avoid separating or leaking air, which reduces confidence in long-term durability. The system works, but the zipper design feels like the weak point and keeps the product from feeling as reliable as it otherwise could be.

Small fan, serious power
Color: Black
I bought the Honeywell Turboforce Fan for my bedroom, and I’m honestly impressed with how powerful this little thing is. Don’t let the compact size fool you — it moves a lot of air. On the lowest setting it’s perfect for a gentle breeze while sleeping, and the higher settings can easily cool down a medium-sized room or help circulate AC much more efficiently. The 90-degree pivoting head is a great feature. I can angle it upward for better air circulation or point it directly at me when it’s extra hot. It’s lightweight, easy to move around, and doesn’t take up much space on a desk or nightstand. It can also be wall-mounted, which is a nice bonus. Noise level is reasonable. On low, it’s actually a pleasant white noise. Medium and high are louder, but not in an annoying way — just the sound of strong airflow. Build quality feels solid for the price, and it’s been running daily without any issues. For the cost, this fan seriously overperforms. If you need a compact, affordable, and powerful fan, this is a no-brainer. I’d absolutely buy it again.

Great price and very quiet
Color: Black
I use the Honeywell TurboForce HT-900 in my home office to help with airflow around my computer setup, and it’s been a solid performer for the price. Despite its small size, it moves a surprising amount of air. On high, it pushes a strong, focused stream that actually reaches across the room. Medium is what I use most often since it balances good circulation with reasonable noise, and low is quiet enough to run in the background without being distracting. Noise levels are generally acceptable. Low and medium are fairly quiet with a consistent hum, while high is noticeably louder but still not unbearable for short bursts. It’s also very simple to position and use. The head tilts easily, so you can aim airflow exactly where you need it, and the compact size makes it easy to place on a desk without taking up much space. Overall, it’s a straightforward, no-frills fan that does its job well. Strong airflow, simple controls, and good value for the price.

Powerful and long lasting
Color: Black
I purchased a blue colored one in May 2022 and it finally went out a few days ago. I ran this thing almost constantly as im going through menopause and it came to be a staple at my bedside. 4 years of running ALL THE TIME! Great little fan with a ton of airflow to keep me cool during night sweats. And it has just enough white noise to distract from outside noise. Also, the motor power never differentiated after using for so long. It was still strong. I just ordered another one to replace it and cant wait for it to arrive so I can sleep again! Only thing is they only have bakck or white instead of blue this time but thats ok as long as it performs.
