RE: We "Grow Food Not Lawns" With No Fertilizer Or Pesticides And Look At This JUNGLE!
I like your "Lawn" ... Mowing is such a waste of Resources.. i just do enough mowing so that the kids have a nice place to play...
Thank you very much Primal Buddhist! I'm sure your local ecosystem thanks you for leaving your grasses and wild flowers nice and tall, there is so much beauty in a rugged yard, I don't care about the bugs...we need bugs! Especially bees! Good on ya :) :)
We have 8 acres 5 is woods 3 was a field when we bought it.. . i just mow a little yard for a play set ... It's pretty incredible actually the weeds are all feed for the wild animals... So many rabbits of different size the yard must be full of nests.. you can get within 5 feet of them before they run away.. I don't allow my dog to chase them, but i don't scold her for eating the new borns she finds..
so many rabbits .. A mated pair of Owls lives nested just inside the tree line in a dead standing tree...
We also have a pet female Giant Flemish with no mate... that may keep them breeding in that area.. that, and the abundance from the weeds... We regularly see deer and turkeys.. We gave up chickens until i get the chicken coop predator proofed..
between the owls, raccoons, opossums, and foxes, we lost all our ducks too..
Oh wow! It sounds like a real paradise, I love your description of all the life you have there. Walking outdoors must be so exciting for your kids. You're living the good life, and really being one with nature.
I definitely hear you about the chickens, it would be hard to free range there, they'd be dinner!! So sorry to hear about your ducks :'( Heart breaking!!!
We Loved having free range chickens and ducks... of course the kids loved it too.. !! For now we just have to be content watching the bunnies and other critters.. A Doe raised to fawns in our backyard.. That was probably the highlight of the Summer..
Omg...beautiful, do you have any photos? I would LOVE to see her and her babies!
i just might... but they are not very good
I would appreciate <3
