Cutting the Grass was a yearly art performance, spearheaded by doctoral researcher Fred Hubble.

Held on the 1st of May every year, performers would hand cut the grass using a range of implements, avoiding all wildflowers. Antihistamines were provided.

Conversations during and after the performance were around Beltain, International Workers Day and contemporary relationships to the rural land around us.
