Just when you think the front-yard garden wars can't get worse, enter USDA's rural development dictatorship domineering the food source of the most vulnerable of our society.
In a South Dakota subsidized housing unit live four-year-old Rosie and her severely disabled mother, Mary. They survive on an incredible $658 fixed disability stipend. A tiny unused space just outside their back door seemed like a good place to grow some veggies to supplement their food source.
The garden was mostly tended by Rosie starting this past May.
[Always BEFORE harvest] The garden was ordered by property management to be completely removed...this week. Where are the orders really coming from?
Why, from the USDA's Rural Development Agency, of course, who set up the rules for property managers to ban "structures" of any kind within their landscapes. Property management is strictly upholding this policy.
Some argue that if you enter into an agreement with any property, you are bound by those rules. However, we're not talking landlords - we're talking a government agency closely dictating this family's plot of grass, food source, and ensuring their dependence and subservience to them. Plus, ordering a four-year-old girl from a hungry poor family to uproot her summer's work (before they can even enjoy the fruits of her labor) goes against the grain of humanity and common sense.
