RE: The Old Dog Investigates: Why Do We Even Have Lawns? Is There a Better Way?
I love this! While lawns can be good for kids running around barefoot! I definitely like your wildflower idea better. I feel like humans are way to obsessed with controlling the environment. We need to let things go more often and let nature take over.
I also love that garden idea you came up with! Gardens would help prevent people from starving and I"m always for that!
Thanks Kaylin, I always love having your input!
It's tough though, I think most people in most suburban areas would still go nuts if someone took out their perfect lawn and filled it up like a wild field. People don't like that one standout thing in the perfect symmetry, I would hope it could work but I bet irritating neighbors would shut it down pretty quick still.
I hear you! That's what happened in my old neighbourhood. Perhaps a blend of lawn, gardens and veggies well done could even look A OK.
