see john on growingyourgreens channel, his residential food garden? is great
trust yourselves, trust truth and knowledge, and love. Trust wisdom and beauty, trust the one i am. and (@ MegaTmarshall, I don’t? know how old the old farmers here are.) We could all learn a thing or two from urban gardeners. i love their creativity. More guerilla gardening
@jamirocat This urban farming may become absolutely necessary for everybody in the near future. The average age for a farmer in England is now 60 yrs. of age. So how old are the farmers in the U.S. & Canada? Probably a similar situation in N. America, too with not too many younger people going into farming to replace them. Add urban sprawl & failing gmo crops to the equation = a very serious problem for our food supply. So are we supposed to trust? the Chinese to feed us healthy food?
I love? these people.
YEAH! LOVE? THIS! GReat to see!
@Gardensandcabins – ooh cramps, I think there’s some? plants growing all over the place that some stupid people call weeds that are good for that….how lucky we are to live in a world where war is daily declared against free medicine too…
@wolftreetree – the? govts need to make this more than legal, they need to make it mandatory. ASAP. Unless people have some really good excuse for needing a lawn* the least they should be forced to do with them is leave them to go to wildflower, and just have a path through them if required.
*eg – they honestly like bowling, which requires proper non-powered clean-cut mowers and rollers anyway.
@dooberry20 – join the club mate, I’m up before the judge soon? for protesting that exact evil wasteful type of society you describe there – lawn-mowing and tree-killing fucking scumfucks. It’s fucking disguisting how they can act like what they are doing is ok or normal.
@bravofighter – you’re meaning the other normal proper use for grassed areas – pasture / animals grazing. Nothing wrong with that, it’s the same as growing food directly. In organic farming that uses animal inputs the pasture land in a mixed farm is usually factored in as part of the crop-rotation. So the area that’s pasture one year is then used to plant some crop in the next year. But yeah if? only grassed areas were put to grazing use, instead of money & fuel wasted on cutting them back.
@Gardensandcabins – are? you saying there are laws stating you cannot use your front lawn as a market or kitchen garden, or a forest garden? And humans actually passed laws like that without anyone noticing that is completely insane and unbelievably inexplicable?
Fantastic! Have done the same thing so far in my old second driveway,lucky enough to know a man with a horse and? use the manure as a base with my compost!
The whole neighborhoods around the US. needs to practice this. We do…? you can’t eat grass.
Well…I dunno. Around here, lawns were always a real source of mini pastureland. The front yard was? for your dairy goats, the back was for your horse. I live in a colonial town, and a few of the houses still have the stone goat troughs in the front yard. We have the chickens and goats and the big garden here, but our lawn serves a big purpose.
I fucking hate listening to and seeing the most wasteful and disconnected cultural consumer ritual, cutting grass lawns with a gas powered lawnmower every fucking weekend. If the whole neighborhood just grew there own foods on their lawns and worked together. this would bring the whole community back together. and no one would have to work at jobs they hate? and local cultures will revive from being stolen from multinational corporations like walmart.
Thats a wonderfull? thing I love it.But can’t help but wonder what keeps code inforcement from bothering those good folks and telling them what they can do in their own front yard.I mean we only are forced to pay taxes our they will kick us out our home and laws for this laws for that and then they tell us what we can and can’t do in our tax paid yards.Hope those folks and never bothered!!
lawn is “green cancer”, keep up the good work?
@sc00b3rt
I wish you could, its sad that you? cannot, I don’t think I could either (unless I made it look like landscaping instead of permaculture) which I am considering.
nice, I like the idea, now lets get the governments to make it legal so we don’t? get fined for doing this.
