Why do I love my yard you ask, well does anyone love thier yard? It's because its green, lush, dense, and comfortable to play on. I've always loved grass, ever since I can remember; that's why I became so involved in taking care of my lawn. You could say I'm somewhat a turf-nerd now. I am currently pursuing...

One of the greatest pleasures I have every day is driving around the corner approaching my house and seeing my front yard welcoming me home.  My  husband is currently deployed in Iraq, and for the first 2 1/2 years of our marriage we moved 5  times for his different training programs.  I really just...

I do love my yard, but caring for it has been an up-and-down kind of experience - sort of like raising teenagers. I start out each spring full of hope and enthusiasm. I can visualize how awesome each flower bed will look when it blossoms. But many of the plants don't behave the way I expect them to ...

Why do I love my yard? I love my yard! My yard is forgiving, as it struggles to survive the bugs, worms and grubs. My yard has stood by, rejoicing the reprieve of summer; yet, embracing the onset of spring. I love my yard. I have made a promise to give back to my yard, as it has given to me. I gather...

Why Do I Love My Yard..... Well, that is a bit much. I do enjoy my yard. A little effort and it looks good; provides a welcoming environment; highlights the house; and enhances "deck time". Bob Crowley -April 2007

The very first thing he does is roll, slide, roll, sniff, sneeze and then looks at me with so much joy and satisfaction in his...

I love my yard because I love the change of seasons. I think it's great in the spring to realize that everything is starting to grow again. I like how in the summer the monstrous tree in my back yard shades our swing set and cools the breeze when I'm outside with the kids. I love grilling out in my backyard...

I love my yard for the way it bombards my senses and shields me from the rat race. When I look out a window, walk out a door, or drive up in my car, I'm blinded by its greeness. Kermit is pale in comparison! After one of Chicago's white winters I can't get enough of its myriad shades of green. I even...

My yard is nothing fancy, but that's what I like. It's a small yard, but well kept-modest landscaping, and plenty of flowers thanks to my wife. It sits on our corner lot, and sticks out in a good way. I enjoy it most after I've mown the lawn and am sitting on my porch with a beer and the ballgame on...
