This is what I’m dealing with. Those brambles are vicious. They look like raspberries but they never fruit. Just thorns. Been getting up early to work on it for a bit before work. TBH it’s going faster than I expected. This whole bed will be clear before I know it. (The power of positive thinking) 🌱

A very weedy garden bed. A thick layer of wild brambles covers everything else. On the left edge of the photo the ground is clear of weeds. I’m working my way to the right a little bit at a time, digging up the brambles and pulling out the crabgrass.

We've been clearing a similar situation out. I've been stabbed enough to make me get chills just thinking about it. Lol. It will be our pollinator garden next year, so worth it!

I hear you! I wear “gardening sleeves” and heavy leather gloves and I still get scratched up
