MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- If you noticed a lot of wild lawns in the neighborhood recently, there's a reason. "No Mow May" was a hot topic across the area last month, with many municipalities participating in an effort to let lawns grow wild during May to help sustainably bolster the ecosystem by offering bees more habitats and food sources.
