Let most of it go native. Plant some native trees and reduce the amount of area you are actually maintaining. You won't regret it.

Living landscape by Doug Tallamy is a good reference book if you are interested.

This. Blows me away when people clear up acres of land just so they can mow it. Let property grow back up with proper trees and keep a small but well maintained yard. Mowing all weekend is for birds.
