Lawns are ‘wasted space’: Native plantings would help insects, birds
Some people have mowed their lawns five times or more this season.
Tara Witherow hasn’t mowed hers once. And she doesn’t plan to.
Witherow is anti-lawn. She looks up and down her Davenport street at the nicely shorn rectangles of bright green in front of the homes and she sees “wasted space.”
