I know you have to have a certain percent of grass on your lot. Don't know if a garden would count. I wouldn't want a garden unless it were raised and I could put in new soil. Surely you realize there's oodles of pesticides in this soil!

It produced more tomatoes than we or our neighbors could eat. Try doing a Google search as it was very successful every year and took up very little space.

Here is what I was talking about. It got me interested and may try it myself.
