Don't rip everything up!
A company called Woodland Scenics makes some stuff called turf, and it can pass for grass pretty well!

Hi There,

The "grass of which you speak is very easy to apply. Befor you apply the "turf" that Eric Mentioned. But down a base of your favorite brown shade of flat latex wall paint. While the paint is still wet, sprinkle the turf out until the paint is fully covered. The paint will act as the glue that holds the turf to the layout. Work in about one to two square foot areas at at time.
