Authorities in Oak Park, Michigan decided to pick a fight with a mom who started a vegetable garden in her front yard
Julie Bass planted the garden after the city had torn up her front yard to repair a sewer line. She decided to improve the area by planting basil, cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The city didn't like that and decided to use their limited funds to take her to court on charges of a misdemeanor
Apparently there is a code that does not allow for the growing of vegetables in the front yard. The code states "... all unpaved portions of the site shall be planted with grass or ground cover or shrubbery or other suitable live plant material."
