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.

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.

"maintain it"?
