so title, as in if you had 50 acres and planted trees, fixed ponds and water ways, etc. would this allow more humidity, promote snow…? like a micro climate?

    Yes.

    Not climate, meaningfully, but environment.

    Allowing native plants to grow rather than… Grass lawns… Will invite a ton of insects, birds, bees etc to stop by.

      Which I totally supported right up until my yard got a flea infestation, and they kept jumping on my legs whenever I walked outside. I’m honestly really grateful they didn’t move into my house from the lawn.

      I still do support having native lawns, but I also believe in informed decision making, so make sure to do a little research before committing to a native lawn. My neighbor keeps a colony of cats and I likely won’t be able to safely have a native yard until they’re gone.

      When I started earning money as a traveling nurse I kept sending it back to my mom and brothers. Little did I know they put it in an account so when I got back it was somewhere near 75k . So i bought the land around us which was just like five acres and got a marijuana permit to grow it. I well my mom and brothers sell it to the local shop. And don’t know why but it sells out instantly. We can’t grow fancy shit or anything just keep the seeds going. So yes you can change your enviroment because in AR its nothing but rocks under the soil and nothing really grows. The only thing that I have seen grow is weed. And more power to you for trying to change your environment the world needs more people like you.
