EDINA, Minn. — Edina is stepping up to help bees and other pollinators, and asking residents to do their part by waiting to mow their yards until the end of May.  During "No Mow May," the city will temporarily suspend the laws requiring residents to keep their yards trimmed, in the hope more pollinators will find a welcoming habitat in the growing turf.  'Participating in No Mow May supports all of Minnesota's pollinators – native bees, honeybees, ants, flies, beetles, birds, butterflies and more,' said sustainability manager Grace Hancock.
