About me: Our yard is mostly mown weeds in the front, stone paths, small birdbaths and fountains amongst the native plants in the other yards. We have a backyard habitat sign from the National Wildlife Federation and enjoy birds, bees, and butterflies. We don't use chemicals except on fire ants. Every weed is picked by hand.
