This week I began my yearly campaign to control the invasive stilt grass that threatens to take over the woods behind our house. The stilt grass grows fast and kills the other ground cover plants.
Every morning I weed whack for one battery charge of the lightweight weed whacker.
It gives me about 15 minutes of exercise and by mid-June the ferns, sea oats and other small plants will have recovered.
Repeat in September.
This gives me hope!!!

I love this story and relate to it completely.
The retaining wall between my home & a neighbor Is basically an out of control bed of English ivy and assorted weeds.
I've been trimming pulling hacking away for 25 years.
It's my reliable nemesis!
