Re: Book Give-Away: Beautiful No-Mow Yards, by Evelyn J. Hadden

I was just informed that due to my county's new septic code, I need to knock down most of my beloved woods to put septic fields in (almost 1/2 acre). My husband and I are heartbroken. Part of the job requires reseeding the area as LAWN! We don't need or want more lawn! When I was a little girl, my grandmother had a wildflower meadow on the very same spot. If I have to lose my woods, I would like to return it to a meadow, but not sure how. Would also like to spend time with my husband rather than watch him mowing every weekend.
