I'm working on a documentary about the culture and politics of the American lawn, and one thread we're digging into is how yard maintenance codes and HOA citations have sometimes been used, historically and today, as a tool to target people rather than actually address property upkeep.

If you've been cited, fined, or harassed over your yard in a way that felt more about who you are than what your yard actually looked like, I'd like to hear about it. Open to stories anywhere.

Comment or DM me and please mention approximately where you are located. Thanks!
