This Land is My Yard

You've walked past them. The birdbath balanced on a tree stump. The chainsaw-carved mascot. The rusted farm equipment standing sentinel at a property line. The toilet (yes, the toilet) overflowing with wisteria.
We call it yard art. But it's something older than that.
In this episode, we take a walk through one neighborhood and discover that every repurposed object on every lawn is making the same argument: I belong to this place, and this place belongs to me. From the folk impulse to reach toward nature, to material culture as community storytelling, to the toilet as territorial poetry: It all adds up to one of the most human things we do with our junk.
It's definitely a folk thing.
