That one hole is certainly an example of minimalist clearing !
No telling how many years that hole has, I imagine it grew into what is today!

Wow.  Obviously I had assumed the opposite.

If that's the case then it is NOT an example of minimalist tree planting  :)

For the sake of nature, somebody please convince me this is a bad idea:

The climate means grass greens are a costly venture. Sand is just not conducive to 'the running game.' Cheaper artificial greens, as per your average mini golf course, could be the answer????
