My husband and I are ripping our lawn up to plant all sorts of good things. Our next door neighbor, who has a pretty big lawn, is allergic to grass, so he can't mow his own lawn, and he's practically under house arrest when others mow their lawns. One wonders why he has a lawn himself. Anyway, his wife said their ambition is to plant a 4 x 8 foot garden in their lawn this year. I wish them luck.

I should be out planting gooseberries, which finally arrived today. You NAFEXers advised me that the deer won't bother them. I hope you're right. The deer ate my tomato plants to the ground last year before we built a better deer fence. Then something got into the deer fence and ate a hot pepper plant, peppers and all. We're building a better fence this year.

Bought some Anne yellow raspberries and Souris red raspberries.
Never had them before.  I read that Souris has a very good flavor.  I
decided that grass is a pain so I am planting all my lawn with fruit
bushes and trees to my wife's dismay. I'm tired of cutting grass.
