Our Northland landscape makes for a terrific backyard with thousands of acres of public forests, multiple river systems, and, of course, more lakes than mosquitoes at a campfire. Not only that, we needn’t lose sleep over poisonous snakes, mudslides, hurricanes, or those pesky shark bites. The only things we’re short on here are mountains and deserts but if you’ve ever hiked a steep mountain (they’re all steep) or thorny desert, you’d probably agree that visiting these places on occasion is enough. Yes, we have it good in our neck of the woods.

Question: Somebody was trying to tell me the other day that it’s OK to throw out their fruit peels along the highway as they break down fairly quick and it shouldn’t be an issue. I disagreed and told them garbage is garbage. I asked if they would want someone to throw that stuff in their yard. What does the law say?
