Environmental News Network: U.S. Lawns Getting an Eco-Makeover

Environmental News Network: U.S. Lawns Getting an Eco-Makeover

Here's a link to a great article at ENN on changing times in the lawn and garden department.

Just yesterday a friend told me that she planted a garden in her front yard last year because it was nice and sunny there and too shady in the back. She thought the neighbors would be over to complain, but nary a word was spoken. This year, she's noticed that several other neighbors are planting veggies in the front yard. Such a trend setter, my friend is.

I wonder if my neighbors will start planting a front yard garden full of Brown-eyed Susans and other wildflowers next year to copy me?
