An old hand mower might be good to find.

To hell with that. If the city wasn't a jerk about it, mine wouldn't get mowed now. If it's SHTF time, I'd consider goats to keep the grass down.

A friend got a goat to clear his land. He figgured he would eat it at some point then, his girlfriend named it...
He tied it to the barn but it knocked the barn over.
He broke up with the girl.

Or sheep, or geese. Come to think of it, geese are supposed to make better "guard dogs" than dogs do......

I read today that crab grass seeds can be harvested and used as flour. Have they seen those itty bitty microscopic seeds? That aside, letting the yard go to weeds will bring in edible weeds and will hide your garden that isn’t planted in straight neat rows.

That’s what I am talking about....make ‘em milking goats.....meat, milk, cheese and mowing rolled up on four legs.

Can’t beat that with a stick.

Goats are good for getting rid of all types of nasty things. Poison Ivy is candy to them.
