Edible Estates is an effort by Fritz Haeg to convert homeowners front lawns into working vegetable gardens. The practice not only functions as an aesthetic shock but more importantly, gets us to rethink what private property, and a little work, is capable of generating in our neighborhood.

So glad to see LA moving in this direction. When I lived there I was told that my city (Glendale) would not allow me to plant my front yard in corn. It is common place to plant vegies in our front yards and planting strips here in Seattle.
