It’s one woman’s BLOG - full of clickbait and ads.

None of the articles are dated and there are no additional references as to where she gets her ‘information.’

IGNORE! Rumor was started in 2023 and quickly ‘squashed.’ LOL!

See? Gardeners are funny people! *SMIRK*

That said, most Homeowner’s Associations frown on vegetable gardens over regular landscaping, so be aware of that if you’re a Veggie Gardener of you’re buying a property run by a HOA.

The thing is, things have gotten so bad under our current government that this is feasible.

And all one has to do is look at history, Stalin for example, and see where he confiscated all the produce a farm produced and left the family to starve for the winter.

HOA's frown on everything.

You are to come to the house you think you own but are actually leasing, pull in the garage, close the garage door, eat a bowl of oatmeal, sit quietly in your front room with the shades (only the kind and color the HOA allows) open at the precise angle they tell you and then go to bed at 9:00. In the morning you will arise at 7:00, have some more oatmeal with glass of tepid water and leave for work by 7:30. On the weekend you are allowed to go outside for one hour to mow your lawn with an electric mower. A person with a micrometer will be coming around to make sure you cut it to the exact height stipulated, no more, no less.

Doing anything else will result in fines and the HOA taking your house away.
