This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What counts as a big garden, I would like bigger but my bungalow is on a 150m² total property area, 60m² of that is the indoor area. Spent quite a bit to have the concrete paved across the entire garden removed and I did all the labour myself with a sledgehammer. IIRC it was 8m³ of that crap.

Now mine is the only house on the street that you can see real bees at. My "lawn is untidy"? Fuck off, that is a meadow and it is glorious! As I am British there is no HOA for you to cry to. I am free to make the bees happy.

Unless it gets to the point I am blocking out the sun to the houses nearby there is fuck all anyone can do about my garden.

Raising a toast to you and your bee friends

I bought bee flower seeds, its a pretty large container (think half a Pringles can). I just sprinkle them around in my neighborhood. 😁. Can't wait for the day weird flowers are starting to popup everywhere.

I should seedbomb the neighbourhood with my kid. He'd be good at that.

I love it! Bonus points if it turns to a bog in the winter, so I can collect potion ingredients.

And here I am thinking 600m² is small garden.

Fucking hell that is a massive area. Wish I could even hope to ever afford so much space.

I guess I realistically could buy that much land without a house on it if I wanted to buy some woodland or something like that, but it probably wouldn't be anywhere near where I actually live and wouldn't be allowed to live on the land.
