@9:32 - that tall plant that is still standing - it's called Opium lettuce. Dry it into a tea, and it's a huge help with serious pain. No danger of addiction - but nearly opioid level pain relief.
Seeing you tackle tremendous overgrowth helps me in tackling my elderly mother’s garden area. It has gotten unruly over the past 2 years due to ‘life’, and now it doesn’t seem as daunting to chop up. I could use a more powerful string trimmer maybe, but now I think just a little more muscle and borrowed bravery from you is good enough! You are a blessing to so many, it’s so wonderful. Thanks for being you. ❤😊
A time capsule hidden behind tall overgrowth reveals a old truck and boat that tells us a tale of the past and better times! Imagine someone getting up early to go fishing, enjoying life! Buried dreams and memories brought back to life through your kindness! ❤️ Love your channel!
I wish there were more people like you in this world. So many people need help but do not know where to get it or they can't afford it. Our towns would be a lot prettier and nicer if people will help each other out. thank you so much for what you do
Hi Erik You never cease to amaze me. The last few videos not only show amazing yard cleanups. They have also shown hidden treasures It's like two for one . Yard makeover and treasure hunt. Now I'm going to find myself looking to see if you find any treasures in every yard 😊 As always wishing you the best in all you do Stay safe
I wonder if the owners of the land appreciate the fact that you cleared their piece of tall grass and a bit of forest like that? You are a good person, just don't let others take advantage of you. Will the car still drive? Will the boat still be waterworthy? Thank you very much for these videos to make me realize how there are people in the world who still have a piece of good heart!❤💯👍👍👍
Sooooo glad you're safe! Clearing such a jungle, you don't know what to anticipate. You display, patience, professionalism and effortless work ethic. May God continue to bless, and keep you Strong. Los Angeles, CA is watching
A battery & new tires for the truck is all it needs I think. Vehicles allowed to just rust in a yard when they could be able to run is a sad sight. Another magical job by Erik!
It's a pretty cool yard but so overgrown. You did a real nice job opening it up. The woman said that Dodge Dakota is an '04. Easy peasy to get it running. Flush & replace all the fluids, new hoses, belts, plugs & battery. It might turn over. Eric if you had one of those brush masters. Whammo!!
Wow what a big difference you had made in this yard. Clearing up between the trees makes more open feeling. Hidden gem was behind the truck an open space unable to see with the tall weeds.
Wow!! That was a jungle holding so much. You uncovered all that. I can't wait to see what else you're going to uncover in part 2. Job well done Erick. 👍❤
Erik, Doug here-that truck is practically calling to me, "save me and restore me back to drivable"! If it's a standard-thats fabulous, I know how to drive a "stick"! Best anti-theft device I know-punk Brats don't know how to drive a manual!😁🤭 I'll be looking for EVERY video of this series cleanup of this yard! Doug🤓👍😁🐻⭐⭐⭐
I know I need to see how massively huge the yard really is when you clean out all the over-grown weed and brush mess from this yard. O know it won't be recognizable from the "before" status to when you're done. This job was a MAJOR treat for you to do for this young lady!😁 Doug
Erik great Part 1. I was in shock to see the truck and boat under all the grass and weeds. I’m going to check out those shoes because I need a pair like that when I work around my yard. I’m also happy you didn’t see any rodents or snakes 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday and stay hydrated 💦💦💦
Erik- you are always so kind and non-judgmental when you help people out. I know I would be wondering why in the heck someone would let weeds grow around a nice truck- was it stolen? Etc. Also I would be wondering about what was growing in the contractor’s buckets to the side of the door…I think people have been really traumatized by the pandemic and it shows up in really weird ways- like letting their truck be completely grown over. The work you do for people may well have a kind of good effect that we don’t understand yet. Based on comments it certainly helps your viewers. Once again thanks for your neighborhood leadership and kindness to people.
Wow you never know what you will find when you start cleaning up the yard, almost like when you start cleaning out your attic it's always amazing the things that you find. God bless and keep you and your family.
You do some pretty heavy clearing with just the string on your trimmer. My compliments. Have you tried the brush blade that replaces the string end of those trimmers? I've found it makes much quicker work of the heavier brush than the string. Either way, good work!
What a nightmare to clear and clean up! I have R.A. and because of surgery to 3 toes I have formed a bunion. Surgery to fix it is not an option because the orthopedists said it would never heal correctly. I don’t ever buy shoes without trying them on, but I believe that I will try these Vessies. I need soft shoes like this, but wearing them in the rain is horrible. These might be my answer. Thanks!
This video was really satisfying to watch! I think because the ground was not cluttered. It was like every swipe of the weed eater, you could see this thing really open up. I bet there has been a TON of offers to buy that truck and boat now!
One of those long gas hedge trimmers are a perfect tool for cutting stuff like that. With them you don't have to bend to cut. Tou can position the blade that is comfortable for you. They will cut things up to the diameter of your finger. A quarter to a half inch. Still makes a really good one. I think they around 200 to 250 dollars. Wel worth the money. Makes the job easier and takes less time to do it. Your back will thank you.
Ah! The Michigan jungle !! Our state is great for the raspberries and grape vine mix! Love your videos, and all your hard work. Hope you are feeling better. I look forward to all of your videos!
Mr Erik you are amazing kind man, because sometimes I can't help feeling like some properties are just pure neglect on peoples part, and I do recognize the people that just really need the help. Great work Mr Erik, I love watching your work its awesome at the end and you take care of yourself.🤗💜
Such a huge job. Who abandons a car, boat etc? If they were cleaned up they could be sold helping the owners with finances. To let a place run wild is not good, with hot, dry summers followed by wet weather, there is always a risk of fire. You do excellent work Erik, thank you for helping people out.
I've done a lot of work like that. Getting a brush blade for your weed Wacker or brush hog. Line Wacker as you know barely got the job done. Thank you for helping people out. God bless you.
Nothing like being able to use your whole yard. We have about 30' of yard that we can't use. That's really frustrating. That looks so much better all cleaned up like that. I know you have more to do but that looks great that's a good start.
🤔 Erik, Sorry To Ask A Question That You Probably Get Tired Of Answering . . . But I Just Can't Get Over How Much Vegetation You're Able To Obliterate With Your String Trimmer . 🤔 So Here It Is: What Brand Of String Do You Use & What Brand Of Trimmer Are You Using ? Thank You . This Clean Up Is A Wild One ! 👍🏼👍🏼
Gotta say best our local guys have uncovered are sheds and gardening equipment, ironically A car and a boat are ahead in the gardening archaeology project

Those shoes you talk about sound interesting!!!! Thanks for that info on those and suggestion. Thanks and happy mowing/trimming! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!!!!
For weeds that tall, why not modify the head of your weed eater to use a skill saw blade. Would cut through all those stems like butter. Make the job less tedious.
Hello Erik. You there was a lot of grass looks like a jungle. It must have been a long time since they did something there. But they don't have to worry, they have the right man to make it nice. It will be nice as always. Have a good time, take care of yourself Erik, we hear from you Sven From Sweden.
That’s so sad to see it go like that. The lawn person could have weed walked the plants back just like you did. Instead they just let the lawn get smaller and smaller. I hope his pay got smaller and smaller too. Now what, their grand daughter looks after them and is trying to get their land back? The place looks brighter now, opening it up it looks happy.

Amen

Agree about the truck. I could use a truck myself.
I’ve never understood why they don’t sell or give them to someone who can use them rather than let them rust & rot in the backyard.
I'm not sure on the sstory
It's a pretty cool yard but so overgrown. You did a real nice job opening it up. The woman said that Dodge Dakota is an '04. Easy peasy to get it running. Flush & replace all the fluids, new hoses, belts, plugs & battery. It might turn over. Eric if you had one of those brush masters. Whammo!!
I bought one!
I would luv to find a yard like that to transform bk to what it was supposed to look like!!! Great job Erik!!!
We are in the process of doiing it lol
This was the craziest yard I've completed, wait until you see part 2
Now they can put a fresh battery in the truck and some fresh ⛽ and fire it up
You did a great job
