I just read a good article in the Sacramento News & Review.  It is
here:

I was wondering (after reading that article) if there was any legal
restrictions to growing fruits, veggies, & other crops in one's front
yard in Sacramento County?  What about eliminating a lawn in favor of
such ideas?

So what have you grown in favor of a green lawn?

I'm pretty sure that in CallyForKneeia growing cannabis takes precedence
 over growing lettuce.

Let us know what you find out when you call your county office tomorrow
(Monday).



Weeds, nicely mowed.

 Here's what I got from Sacramento County Code Enforcement:

Ron,
There are no legal restrictions on front yard gardens. Just make sure
that you maintain it. Way to think outside the box.

That sure sounds like a big restriction to me... what do they mean by
"maintain it"?
