• The Good, The Bad, and Your Lawn Gardening, Lawn Care
  
  This article lists seven reasons why lawns are good. Actually, the first three are really only the good reasons. The others are just side benefits for humans. I included this article because I thought it was a good informational read.

And besides, it just doesn’t make sense to spend time, effort and money just to maintain a healthy lawn especially in the drought prone environment we live in.
