Our hearts were broken last week when we discovered that a resident farmer (and I use that term loosely here) had not only plowed a little over onto our property line, but also sprayed some crappy chemicals. The lower half of our beautiful lot should be covered in gorgeous, tall rye grass. Now, it looks like moonscape. We have only a sliver left - and that's where the driveway is going. I try so hard not to cry every time I look at it.
Yes, it will grow back. But........... dang it! I'm pissed.
So, being the ever-proactive, positive-thinking, plant-loving, hopeful-romantics that we are, we have contacted the Washington County Conservation District. They offer assistance to situations like this. We may even be eligible for a grant to help restore native prairie grass. We'll be meeting with the Valley Branch Watershed District to see what they recommend for our land.
Yes, it will grow back. I feel better.
