A new law that went into effect this week allows Florida residents to plant what they want, where they want to on their own lawns — something one couple wasn't able to do for six years
Imagine as a homeowner, being told where you can and cannot plant your vegetable garden. That's the exact battle a Florida couple faced for six years.
The City of Miami Shores told Hermine Ricketts and her husband Tom Carroll that the garden they maintained for almost twenty years was illegal, according to CNN affiliate WPLG.In 2013, the Miami Shores Village code enforcement department served the couple with a notice saying they were in violation of an ordinance that banned front-yard vegetable gardens. They would be fined $50 per day if they didn't remove their garden, according to the Institute for Justice.
