Clearing Winter Crops and Weeds

What happens here

Begin by assessing the condition of your raised garden beds, noting existing winter crops like cabbage and broccoli, along with any weeds. Harvest any salvageable crops, such as the large cabbage heads the creator found. He demonstrates that even cabbage with worms is acceptable for certain uses, like making sauerkraut. Proceed to pull out all remaining plants and weeds from the beds, ensuring they are thoroughly cleared. The creator mentions that he previously used old Amazon boxes to suppress weeds and enrich the soil over winter, a method he plans to continue in future seasons. Load all the cleared garden waste into an electric garden cart and then transfer it to an electric wheelbarrow to easily transport the debris to a compost heap.

Goal: Clear out existing plants and weeds to prepare the raised beds for new season planting, and transport waste to compost.
