Done a little googling about this group, Native Plant Society and their recent convention and their goals. They are not political it seems and their topics and their goal is to restore natural habitats for creatures that live here. Seems like a good group.

Saw not a word in any of the information from them about artificial turf. Artificial Turf would not provide a home for the worms. (Or Mole Crickets for that matter) or things that feed the Sandhill cranes. I see the cranes beaking down into the grass for something. Artificial turf wouldn't halt wash out either, I would think.

Mark me down as interested in The Native plant society and not interested in artificial turf.

Or those bells instead of downspouts. We all have different tastes.
