Sonny Eclipsepsa: grow food on your front yard, not grass. Growing fruits and vegetables on your front lawn is not only way more environmentally friendly than yard growing a lawn, but also a whole lot more fun! Lawn are and only ever were a class signifier--a way of showing "hey, look at me, I can afford to use my land on have utterly useless space on my property". If you don't have kids regularly playing on your front yard, grow something more fun to take care of and more useful

Pro-tip: if you're on a busy road, make sure to plant a hedge between the road and your front garden, and wash your food well.
You do not want to be eating exhaust fumes.
If you have plenty of food growing space in a back garden, you might consider a native garden in front.
