- Redford Township considers allowing vegetable gardens to grow in residential front yards
Redford Township considered a new ordinance to allow residents to grow vegetable gardens in front yards, after one resident was cited for the practice. The proposal passed its first hearing by a vote of 4 to 3, establishing requirements such as 4-foot height restrictions and raised beds. Advocates view the change as an opportunity to improve community aesthetics, while the second hearing is set for August 25, 2026.
