Cadgel Meadows, a vast expanse of untamed grassland, existed on the world of New Plympto. It held the distinction of being the location of the largest civilian spaceport on the planet. Its location was in close proximity to Half-Axe Pass.
Following the events of the Battle of Half-Axe Pass, the Galactic Empire took control of the area, capturing any refugees attempting to escape through it. The 501st Legion forced the spaceport to cease operations, and all starships situated there were prohibited from taking off. Subsequently, in 19 BBY, Bomo Greenbark and Dass Jennir made their way into Cadgel Meadows, secretly entering the spaceport and hiding aboard the freighter Uhumele. This occurred just before the mass departure of all starships attempting to escape Imperial forces. The area, along with the entirety of New Plympto, met its end in 27 ABY when a Yuuzhan Vong bioweapon obliterated the planet.
