Trending a garden is a lot more work than a lawn. And there are a lot more critters that want to come reap what I've sown.

Pruning and harvesting takes a bit more time and energy than maintaining a lawn but not much. Who cares if critters get a share? A single berry is more than you get from a lawn.
