No Mow 2023 Commitment

No Mow 2023 Commitment

Update: We have reached our current capacity for No Mow Month sign ups – over 200 lawns are letting it their grass grow across Nashville!  Due to the huge popularity of this program, we have exhausted our supply of signs and, unfortunately, will not be able to provide signage for new participants. 

If you still plan to let your lawn grow this Spring, please be sure you refer to Metro Codes policy and any local HOA guidelines to keep your lawn grass below 12 inches. Thanks and happy No Mow Month!

More Information

Thank you for committing to No Mow Month! Your lawn will be joining hundreds across Nashville that are committing to letting it grow wild this April.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Will I be fined by Metro Codes if I let my grass grow tall?

No! We are partnering with Metro Nashville on this project; as long as residents keep their grass below 12 inches in height and visibly display their No Mow signs in their yards, they will be in compliance with Metro’s High Grass and Weeds code.

Residents are encouraged to check HOA guidelines to ensure compliance with additional neighborhood regulations.

What do I do at the end of No Mow Month? 

When it does come time to mow your grass at the end of April, be sure to have a weed eater handy for the first pass over. The grass may be too long for your mower to handle.
