In spring 2023, I stepped outside just minutes after the lawn had been sprayed and saw a beautiful American robin pulling worms from the same grass.
In that moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of guilt. That afternoon, I canceled the lawn service. Since then β€” and for as long as I own this property-he will be safe in my yard.

@rmishra A lot of people in our neighborhood have given up on lawns. Instead, there are native flowers and native grasses turned into gardens. Less fuss than lawns as they don't need mowing and fertilizer, etc.. It's bringing back more earthworms, pollinators and birds.
@rmishra πŸ’šπŸ‘ŠπŸΌ maybe your grass can transform to meadow with flowers and even more visitors...
