It takes some effort to make everything simpler in the long run. We are currently working really hard to get each small section of our yard to be low maintenance. Planting perennials, mowing leaves where they land and piling up leaves to decompose over the winter. Our “lawn” is looking more and more like a meadow with clover, some grasses, random flowering weeds. All it takes is some clover seed, to stop fertilizing and to not use herbicides.
Huh, guess me being lazy and leaving grass untrim and compost pile lying there is helping 🤔
Absolutely!
Great article, really enjoyed reading it
I keep meadow, about a half acre, pretty much ungroomed. I mow it when it turns brown and shrivels in the autumn, but otherwise I just let nature do it’s thing. There’s bugs and snakes and frogs and rodents. My toddler loves to play out there and look at them all.
