A lot of people are secretly cows and they actually eat that grass. Next time you say hello to someone and they respond โ€œmooโ€ youโ€™ll know why.

Grass is easier to maintain by itself

Plenty of people have these things called "gardens". You can grow food right in the ground with them. Fruit baring trees are also a thing people enjoy in thier yard.

Is your entire property filled with bushes or something?

I can imagine a few reasons.

I have a dog, she needs some running around space in our yard, so we make sure she has it.

Otherwise we do have a raspberry... Thicket? In the corner of our yard, and some smaller raised beds along the edges. Every year the local squirrels steal the veggies we plant, but not the raspberries, no matter what we do.
