Grow Food Not Lawns: Families Are Fined For Growing Food On Their Front Lawn
Like most growing cities in the United States, Tucson, Arizona is struggling with the concept and regulation of Urban Agriculture. In one of the Facebook groups that I am a member of, I posted this picture and story from Orlando, Florida where the homeowner is facing fines of $500 per day for having a garden in their front yard. The family is charged with violating section 60.207 of Orlando’s Land Development Code (failure to maintain ground cover on property). [link to www.collective-evolution.com]

People must fight this type of over-reaching, and fight it hard. Where does it end, and why did it begin? With that said... maybe people in Orlando could use thick mulch as to "maintain ground cover" on their property?

I don't think it would be real progressives making these kind of laws. It's fake progressives that lick the boots of their capitalist masters that do this kind of stuff.

Everything is going to be controlled.Always puzzles me all these people posting about grow your own food,etc.
All kinds of contamination already and will get worse but most of all regulations will stop people from growing.The days of doing as one pleases because they think they own something is about over.

All laws,legislations that violate constitution, including local and land usage, are null and void at conception.

But people still are being bullied by rogue agents on all fronts and have to stand up for each other.

I think this is a great idea. Put the gardens out front. Neighbors would get to know each other a bit better as more people would be in the front yard rather than the back.

Yep, without reading the article, either HOA and an ordinance due to zoning. They should have looked before they leaped.
Gardens can be grown virtually unseen in flower beds and along the fenceline of a yard. Containers also. There is a way for them to satisfy themselves and the HOA.

Growing food crops in an urban setting is not a good idea because it causes major insect and rodent infestation to the adjacent properties.

This is part of the depopulation plans/ Eugenics/ transhumanism

Create a recession, hyper inflation, stupid food prices, then imprison people for foraging or trying to grow their own food, infact any act of independence will be jumped on, you will shut up and starve to death you filthy useless slaves, don't try to save yourselves.

Stupid thread about idiots that want a front yard to look like crap. If you live in a suburb would you want your neighbors house to have the front yard filled with corn? Vegetable gardens are basically dirt patches for much of the year.

This is why you will need indoor gardening. As the bureaucrats try to take over all food production food will become more expensive, eventually it will become so expensive that the average family will not be able to afford it.

Here is a couple of aquaponics and hydroponics system that you might want to look at.
