One of the most important aspects of growing a garden is managing the weeds. Unwanted plants growing in with your vegetables will steal moisture, nutrition, and light. If the weeds grow out of control, your harvest will be minimal. If you have a small garden and a lot of time, you can easily pick all of the weeds by hand and have a perfect-looking garden. If you have a larger garden like Justin, then you will have to develop different weed management strategies.

There are multiple benefits to changing part of your yard over to food production, natural vegetation, or flowers. If you would like to start growing some food in your yard, the easiest things to plant are perennial shrubs and berries. Berries such as blackberries, raspberries, and black raspberries grow well in this climate on most lawns and they will spread.
