My hometown’s newspaper just published an opinion piece about the disastrous effects, ecologically and financially, that lawn care causes. Not totally surprising but it’s important to note that this is a retirement community in the bible belt!

Y’all, it’s working! Keep spreading the word!

    I noticed it too. The company I currently work at let two big lawns grow out this year. At first I was thinking it was just another way to save money for them, but then I asked around a bit and someone revealed to me it was a conscious decision for the environment.

    The company is damaging for the environment in a lot of other ways sadly, but I was still happy to see this shift to consider the environment more.
