Weeds can be a good thing. It's seems a little counter intuitive as a gardener/farmer to say, but in a lot of ways they really are. Over the past year I started working on our certified organic Urban Fringe Farm in Woodinville. I thought it would be interesting to bring the farm experience back to the backyard by sharing some of what I've learned. The weeds on our farm have been nothing short of challenging to tame, but as I began to study the enemy, I started to realize they are just the opposite of an enemy.
