I'm building a community of people to replace lawns with food growing systems, using high moral ethics regarding inputs, process, and outputs and using permaculture principles collected scientifically though analysis and observation.
The industrial lawn is a monoculture which doesn't exist in nature, as such it is inherently less efficient because it doesn't stack functions or yields.

I'm talking small scale food systems you may set into motion on a plot of land 1/3 or less!
The best thing you can do right now is to raise your mower blade deck up as high as possible and only mow one or twice per quarter.
My channel nickname is "unturf", and ill give you hundreds of ways and reasons to build a natural food producing systems at your house!
I look to a future of one guided by permaculture, using technology as a means to increase yield of natural systems. Let's build a solar punk future together, one where we build systems which not only sustain but regenerate!
