Luzula campestris, commonly known as field wood-rush or Good Friday grass is a flowering plant in the rush family Juncaceae. It is also one of the plants known as chimney sweeps or sweep's broom because of the brush-like appearance of their flowers.

This species of Luzula is found on all types of native grasslands, and cultivated areas such as lawns, golf-course greens and fields.
