Instead of looking at the state of the place and thinking, I
don’t know how to landscape, the thought that should be running through your
mind is that you have a blank canvas to work with. Woohoo!
You have to be able to see beyond the weeds and overgrown
grass and see what may lie beneath. It’s not like you have to do it all on your
own either – you can contact a landscaper in, oh I don’t know… Aspen Creek

what you can do with that space.
