Yep totally safe to take out an entry wall without any checking.
"Our little farm." LOL.
One of my more philosophical rural relations once pointed out to me that "farm" is really a verb. You can own a piece of land ideal for farming, that has been farmed successfully in the past, or that has never been farmed but has great potential for it, but unless you are putting the work of actual
farming into it, it's just land, and not really a farm. A "farm" is a place where farming is
done, upon which humans exert effort every single day in order to feed and clothe humans, while keeping nature at bay.
Corissa's backyard was once a small, organic herb farm. It has the potential to be such once more, but right now—and for the forseeable future—it's going to remain a backyard. And that's because neither Corissa nor Juliana, or any of their fat friends, is capable of expending any of the hard, sustained effort required to grow food plants; tend poultry or small livestock; or plant, maintain, and harvest from fruit/nut trees.
At best, Corissa might be able to grow some herbs and tomatoes (from starts) in tall raised beds or raised containers, provided somebody else builds the beds, brings the containers, mixes the soil and amendments, and fills those beds/containers. All she would have to do is plant her nursery starts and keep them watered. But that's not farming, and does not make her supersized in-town lot a farm, even if it was once used for that purpose.
And I see she's having a big area fenced for the dogs, so that she doesn't have to walk them. Once her sister and Pete leave (and you know they will), the dogshit will gradually accumulate, because Corissa's not going to go pick it up. Any grass will be burnt by dog urine and torn up by dogs running across it. It will end up a barren, stinking, unsightly mess, because Corissa and Juliana are physically incapable of keeping it from becoming anything else.
