Clean Up Crew
It’s festive to look out the window and find busy birds peck-peck-pecking away, dining on some of the more hideous creatures that hide in our non-lawn (shhhh, ticks).
We don't have much of a lawn. We do encourage a vigorous landscape of weeds, though. And a weedy "lawn" has benefits, not that encouraging weeds makes yard care easy. Tom puts in a lot of work to keep au naturale from mowing us under. But along with the trees and shrubs, our chemical-free weeds invite baskets full of butterflies, plus owls, hawks, hummingbirds, a variety of sparrows and warblers and woodpeckers to suburbia, just to name a few visitors.
