Reason presents the Nanny of the Month for September 2010. While America thinks of new ways to live a truly green lifestyle, including eating locally-grown produce, in DeKalb County, Georgia officials want to fine a man for growing too many vegetables.
Here’s the description accompanying the video:

We’ve exposed meddlers who want to squash other people’s right to do everything from sing karaoke, to drink raw milk, and bust a move at ladies night.
