Who in their right mind would have 2 or 3 acres of lawn?

i have 62 acres. approximately 2-3 acres is "lawn", that
includes the areas where we grow blueberries & fruit trees.
the house is set about 200' back from the road, so there's a
large expanse of lawn out front. i'm very slowly planting
shrubby things out front, but since we're a working farm
pretty landscaping isn't a top priority.
we do also usually have to mow the 10 acres of pasture at
least once/year. that's real fun.
