    People need to start embracing electric mowers and trimmers. They’re way quieter and easier to maintain. My Ego mower is still going strong after five years on the same battery.

      I think we need to normalize alternative landscaping. Think tall and thin sumac with lots of mulch on the ground. Once in a year dump lots of mulch and don’t mow anything. If you don’t like gardening, and don’t spend time outside, just plant large bushes and mulch. I see so many people around that just don’t care about their lawn, and do the easiest thing so it looks like everybody else’s.
