I'm keeping it as decorative looking as possible, so it just goes unnoticed

Is that salt or fresh water at the back of your house?

Fresh

Give any thought to floating hydroponics?

I wish I lived on the intercostal, but that's pretty big money

I'm wondering how much more of my front yard I can turn into a garden before the city comes down on me
Why would they care? It there an ordinance against it?

Nothing directly, but people in other cities in Florida and elsewhere have had to rip up their stuff or get fined
Why would they care what you have in your front yard as long as it is clean?

Yes actually, well. We were joking about building some floating planters tethered to the shore <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

That or whenever the water level goes down, just start putting concrete bags and dirt to extend the property line

Dunno, regulations and whatnot, most recently some people in Orlando got harassed by the local government about their front yard garden

Did you know what manicured front lawns of only grass are a hold over from English aristocracy. It was a status symbol that you didn't need to grow your own food, but could buy it

If you get enough of your neighbors together and you all do it, what can they say?

I don't think South Florida is left over from the English.

Heck, just found out that I can't have chickens ( I thought that changed) but by the most recent code I found, no agricultural animals on lots smaller than 5 acres
