Walking the dog around the suburban neighborhood I am in right now, I am struck by how out-of-sync the yards are to the native landscape. Water thirsty plants. Large expanses of lawn. Imported plants which cannot take drought or heat. Imported river rocks. Only one yard with natives that the birds and insects here could forage. Almost zero edible plants or fruit trees visible.
