A Green(er) Lawn, pun intended

A Green(er) Lawn, pun intended

Does it seem like you spend half your weekend making sure your lawn is mowed/watered/fertilized/etc.? Lawn maintenance takes up a massive amount of time, and it also takes up a lot of our precious resources on Earth. We have an opportunity to be a part of the solution to the climate crisis in our own backyards. In this episode, we discuss how having “The Great American Lawn” is not all it’s cracked up to me. There are alternatives that are equally beautiful, require less work, and will still allow you to have a green space to live and play. Stick around to the end of the episode for an easy tip that will make your mother (earth) proud this week. Cover art by Elbert Foster
