Gardening News & Tips

Nothing is certain in life except taxes, death, and weeds! Controlling vegetable weeds can cause gardeners more aggravation than any other garden pest.

Weeds can harbor insects and diseases that attack vegetable plants, making it important to maintain a healthy, weed-free, productive garden.
