A lawn has its uses in parks, for example to have a Picknick. If you trow in some clover, daisies and ribwort, don't spray and patches are left to grow to provide shelter it's not that bad for biodiversity, depending on the climate of course. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] rbos@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 year ago Yeah, there's grass and then there's grass. Sure. I got no beef with a field of mixed grass that's left to grow, especially if there's mixed native wildflowers etc. It's the fields of monoculture non-native grass that the Suburban White Dude[tm] wants to obsessively cultivate and that seems to be the goal of parks departments everywhere that's the problem. My partner ranted to me the other day that she couldn't get a 10m^2 area from a local municipal parks department recently for a Miyawaki forest plot. No reasons, just "no." Very frustrating group of fuckin' boomers. permalink fedilink source parent [β] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago Shots fired. permalink fedilink source parent [β] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago The park that people are supposed to walk through? permalink fedilink source parent
