Wouldn’t it be nice not to have to mow every week to keep the neighbors happy? Those water bills in the summer can get outrageous. What if you could make your garden maintain itself? You could just come home, pick a few vegetables for dinner on your way in, and have curb appeal that would be the envy of the neighborhood! In 1959, a scientist in Australia was studying animals browsing for food in a forest and wrote in his journal “I believe that we could build systems that would function [for humans] as well as this one does.” Bill Mollison went on to coin the therm permaculture by combining the words permanent and agriculture. We suburbanites love our lawns. But now that life has gotten more busy, we have started to replace them with rock gardens and cyprus bushes. There is a more aesthetic and productive way to avoid mowing and save water. Read on for tips on how! | ||
