RE: Grow Food Not Lawns: A Vision for Suburban America

in #ecotrain7 years ago

Since i was in high school, ive felt an exasperation with the lawn. Like you, i think a little is nice, especially for little kids, but it should really be mostly food. Really hope this change will come. The front lawn - america's number two cash crop.

AGREED!

right?!?!?!

Its a maddening waste. I love the guerilla planters that fill public spaces with fruit trees and vegetable plants.

Maddening indeed. planters are certainly a great way to liven up areas where space is not being used for anything. More things growing makes the world a better place.

True, true! I was meaning the people who plant fruit trees in places like medians and roadsides and parks.
