Starting in the dirt

I need serious tips on gardening. Serious tips.
We have a big garden, surrounding the whole house, but it’s poorly planned. Also, we’ve got four apple trees and I think they all need to be chopped down due to illness (trees and their mystic illnesses!), and then we just have a lot of big bushes littering the lawn. Which is full of weeds, by the way.
But, as I’m anticipating that we’ll spend a great deal of time outdoors this year (Carlita loves LOVES to be outside, didn’t ya know?) I figured I might as well DO SOMETHING about this mess. I’m going to need a lot of divine intervention because my thumbs, they are BLACK!*
* I used to have a bunch of cacti, now I have but one.
Also, planning and executing can be touchy as I don’t know how Jelly Man’s dad will react to these changes. We’ll just have to wait and see.
