Gardening and lawn maintenance is labor-intensive. Weeds are a constant source of frustration — quite often said to be the most hated part of lawn care and gardening — and must be dealt with regularly to maintain the best condition of a lawn or garden.

With age, people find it more difficult to garden and maintain their lawns. But growing vegetable gardens, fruit, and flowers not only bring great pleasure but also side income to many households. Many people choose to cut back as they get older and sadly choose to give up on the beauty, enjoyment, and yield their lawn or garden brings.

Others choose to hire help to maintain their lawn and garden, which can require great expense and specialization. Gardening and lawn care needs change as do the seasons, which also requires greater knowledge and adaptability.
