Elderly Couple STUNNED with What I FOUND BURIED under this Overgrown Grass, Wait until you see this! #overgrownlawn
This Elderly Couple reached out as their yard has gotten out of control due to health issues and she explained she just wants her yard back. I drove out there and was stunned at how much Overgrowth there was. This has to be one of the largest trimming jobs I’ve ever done. They were shocked to see what all I found buried underneath all this overgrown grass

I use upside all the time it’s great!
Im outside country,sorry.
I could never take care of a garden like this thank you for helping them
Amazing job done congratulaion
Good job
The way it was originally built was an invitation for whimsical to take place. As the clean up was necessary, it still brought a tear to my eye seeing all that just cut away
This must have been their little paradise in their backyard years ago. This garden with so much creativity/little treasures takes so much time & effort to maintain. Eric you are a great asset to your community. Awesome Job! Blessings/peace
Get me back on where they're cleaning the backyard off
I watched to see what treasures he uncovered.
So blessed you are here my friend, feel free to share
huh
Ton
the homeowner said "people don't do that any more!" She was SOOO appreciative of what Erik had done! GREAT JOB, ERIK! Seeing those different items uncovered must have brought black so many wonderful memories for them!
❤❤❤
She was an amaziing lady
it's a hard confirmation to accept when someone can't continue caring for the beauty they created ...
😪😪😪
I can imagine how hard it was for them. What a beautiful place!
It’s breaking my heart to see this 😢
Getting old sucks. But the flowers will grow back. An now it would be easier to maintain. Yes very Beautiful yard.
I'm a senior myself, and I hear you. Thirty odd years ago I couldn't understand why an older neighbour was turning more and more of his lot back to grass instead of flower beds, etc. Now I'm getting closer to the age he was then, I understand ! In recent years I've cut back the flower beds quite a bit, only growing what survives the best, and is the easiest to care for. As long as I can still walk ( ! ) I can still mow the grass, and look after the few flower beds I have left ! I know I'm blessed to be able to still do it all ! :)
i can inagine the beauty of this yard b4 when the owner still can meantain, its like an enchanted yard 💖💖💖💖💖💖
It was amazing, had to be
Oh, my gardeners heart!!!! So many treasures. This is the type of project I could sink my teeth into. I would LOVE to do a garden project like this. I know this was a gorgeous garden before and can be brought back to its glory.
I would like to watch you create a garden!
I'm trying to bring mine back now I started with 10 green with red center bromeliads and I have a cast of thousands. Yesterday someone from one of my internet sites came by with her husband it must have cut it off a hundred to put around her trees. There's so many other plants because I've been sick for the last 2 years the grandfather themself all over my yard. I hate to chop them down when I can find somebody who could take him home. Live oaks ferns palms scheffleras monasteria you name it it gave birth while I was sick now I'm trying to just get my gutters cleared they're overgrown with purple wandering Jew and ferns and other Vines. But it's winter time here so I'll be able to remain outside more. Thank you for your comment all of you on site like this keep me going and inspired. God bless America!
Yes I'm the same way....
I would be right there helping! So many treasures.
I wish I could re-create it into a masterpiece
The hydrangeas were screaming. 🤦
LOL
Oh, lord, it would have been like Christmas for me in this garden-all those hidden treasures! The old lawnmower, milk can, red wagon! The old tubs! I wanted you to display each piece so I could get a good look at them! You did an amazing transformation! Although it did break my heart to see all those hydrangeas go!
I should have done that!
I bet that yard was something to see back in the day! Great job!
For sure, nice setup
Good morning everyone hope you are having a good day.
Good morning to you … have a wonderful day
Good Morning
Wow, Erik, that was some job! They could have a garden supply sale and make a good amount of money off all the excess things and that would help clean up the place. You just can’t do it anymore when you’re elderly. The mind wants to, but the body just can’t. 😊💖🦋🕊
Shoot my body was sore lol
Thanks for doing that for them. You know how many people did not want the job. And you can tell someone loved the space.
IIt was fun to clean up
As we got older we, meaning my husband, found it harder and harder to deal with the garden. So we downsized, found the house too cramped for us, then moved again. Now we are in a bigger house with only a 5m backyard which is all decking, a small Japanese garden, and a rocky garden with a water feature. The front is decking and stones. We only have plants in pots which are all around. The only grass is out front on the nature strip which is required by council. It takes my husband not even an hour to cut and trim the grass. We still have a beautiful outdoors which is well under our control. It’s very easy for a garden to get out of control.
Sounds ideal
It's like finding a Secret Garden and you're bringing life back to it. 👏👏👏👏👏🌺
Trying my friend
Wow what a job, most of those plants will grow back. ❤❤❤
He has to dig out the roots. 😢
They will over time
Nah, they will get it under contorl
This is the most interesting garden I have ever seen, even in its present condition. I would have loved to see it in its prime!
Me too
Eric, my perspective on why properties get this way have changed since I myself have gotten older, people like you, and that still work are a godsend. ❤️
I would love to see a picture of what this garden looked like in its glory days. A lot of work went into it over the years. So sad they couldn't take care of it anymore. Great job cleaning it up. Made me sad.
Yes this one hurts my heart all those beautiful flowers cut down like weeds too bad they couldn't have afford a gardener
Made me so sad also, lot's and lot's of hard work and lot's of money also. I can't watch this.😪❤️😪
this was a beautiful enchanted garden back in it's day. Hopefully will be again. alot of the stuff you cut off will come back on it's own.
Agree!
Wow this lady's Green Thumb must be made of Miracle Grow! Hydrangeas, marigolds, ferns, dill, hostels and roses are the few plant I recognized and even though the garden is over grown the plants are all healthy and beautiful.
Wow so overgrown
Agree
I could see a TV show redoing this backyard. Definitely needs to downscale the treasures.
I could to, that would be awesome
You can tell these folk arent lazy ,just unable. Beautiful tribute to genuine people
Eric the explorer! Making these people rich again with thier treasure trove to enjoy! Well done Sir!
They had a ton of ornaments
This must have been a darling place when it was in its prime. I'm so glad that you were able to help them clean out the vines and little trees. They will have a good time going through all of the treasures that you uncovered.
So nice of you
Such a whimsical garden at one time that was cared greatly by the gardener! So many antiques mixed in. Oh I'd have a field day! Great job!!
definitely whimsical
When I saw some of those ancient garden tools appear from under the foliage - an old push mover ,what looked like a long, metal handled old style edger, an old rusty wheelbarrow - WOW what a great vintage display you could make with them - perhaps arranged into a perennial flower bed - mulch it all down nicely, to keep the weeds back - it would look fabulous ! I'm a gardener, myself - I'm loving this restoration !
It was an amazing setup
Agree, lots of cool thiings
Good job Erik cutting down the rainforest I'm amazed you didn't run across any elephants are lions.
LOL didn't see any of those
There were plenty of garden treasures there for sure. You did a great job.
There were a lot of cool things
They must have been terribly upset that their garden was getting completely overgrown. What peace of mind for them to see their garden again! Thanks once again for modeling kindness and service! An unrelated question: what kind of snakes might be in a garden like that?
I'm not sure, I don't want to see any lol
It had to hurt watching you years of work be cut down but the relief of not having to fight it was just as profound. Great job!
Breaking my heart to see all the wonderful plants that have matured and brought down so quickly ,she loved her garden like I do mine so many artifacts laying or incorporated in this garden would love to have seen it in its glory. You done well to find the canvas I hope she can restart again 🌱🌹🌺🌻🌼🌿
Me too, it's a great setup
I'm sure that many will have a chance to come back now that they aren't choked out by the weeds.
Erik you do so much for people who can't do it for themselves any more. Thank you and your family for all that you do. Love it. Marion, Ohio
Appreciate you!
What I wouldn’t give to be there helping you! This is absolutely stunning. Thank you for helping them out. 🙏❤️
I know huh my ocd is kickn in... heeheehee
It was fun
I would have helped save the plants
I love gardening. If I was physically able to do what you do. I'd be right out there myself. ❣️
You're very inspiring, sir
Appreciate you
Eric what u did for them is extremely generous. You are definitely an Angel 😇 on Earth may u be blessed 🙏 for all u do💪 you did the work of ten men🙏😁💪💞
It was a lot of fun
I totally get there heartach and frustration . I can see that it once was a beautiful secret garden at one time. Lots of love and time was put into this .I too am in a position of despair over not being able to physically do alot of the things I used to be able to do because of my health problems. May God wrap them in his arms and take care of them.God Bless you to for helping them!
seeing a garden like this let go breaks my heart, but sometimes life gets in the way and we have no one to help out, or are afraid to ask for the help in fear of being turned down. Much love for helping the restore their garden.
Welcome to the jungle. You cleaned up very nice but that was just too much work for one person be blessed and take care.
It was a tough one
Again a fantastic job you have given them a great start a little everyday and it will be back to its formal glory
Thanks my friend
Eric too good to be true!!! you done a great job for the lady... much better looking good.
Appreciate you!
Is the person who created the garden still alive, Erik? I really like all the garden area and the garden art that was placed all over. I bet that person really enjoyed creating that beautiful area! One of a kind yard. So many people just have benign yards but this property is a work of art! Thanks for cleaning it up Erik!
Yes, they are, just ran into some health stuff and couldn't maintain
Eric you are amazing
How many acres is that it's huge!?
These types of videos have made me really rethink my own yard and flower gardens the past couple of years. I have really cleared out all the "treasures" and downsized the overall size of the gardens. Got rid of a lot of pots on my patio area too. To be honest, it has really made me feel so much better knowing I won't be leaving a mess for my kids to deal with someday. Great job Erik on a very difficult property!
Appreciate you Brenda!
Very difficult with emotions, glad you were able to accomplish what you could!
How many days did this take..?
This is God sent.
I really don't think us old folks should get in these bad ways became we all have family
Treasure under every leaf. Looks great.
Amen
Thank you for your service and kindness. I'm getting up in age and love doing yard work. I know my day is coming, that I won't be able to do this anymore.
Erik you did a beautiful job! I loved seeing how much love this couple put into their garden!
It was a lot of work!
I can only imagine how beautiful this garden once was. The amount of hidden treasures and beautiful plants were the result of many hours of hard work. I'm sure it was heartbreaking to them to see it like this. Thank you, Erik, for working so hard to restore their area, so once again they can enjoy it. On another note, please watch out for snakes!
Luckily we didn't see any snakes
Treasures everywhere! This is one of my favorite landscaping cleanups ever!
Thanks! Feel free to share:)
Erik you are an anthropologist who has unearthed a gem of a garden. Bless you !
A treasure trove of garden beauties !! TFS Erik 🌞
For sure, it turned out really well
Hey! Excellent job on the yard. What an improvement! That was quite an undertaking. I bet that yard was beautiful when it was first put in. I could picture a loving couple sitting under the WELCOME sign early in the morning enjoying the birds singing, sipping a cup of coffee at the table and chairs you pulled out of there when you were cleaning that space. ☕️☕️
It was a hell of a setup, loved this property
I absolutely love all the hidden little treasures. Must have been beautiful in its prime.
Love love love what magic you made in the garden. Your awesome Eric! Thank you for all you do for people! ❤️❣️
Amazing how much-needed and loved and miracles happen when we get the RIGHT person to help in our time of need. ERIC, God bless you.
Blessed to be able to help
Great job dude...love your video's you have a heart of gold, ,great inspiration. Many Thanks.
Appreciate you Phiil
Her garden had been so beautiful at one time .
As he we get older it is hard to keep our yard
Amen to that!
Wow hard to believe all those things were hiding in he weeds. Time to re do the whole works for sure GREAT JOB!!!
Amen
OMG she had A LOT of yard art! Every corner you turn, there's something to look at. I bet she spent over $25K or more accumulatively over the years on all that stuff. Golly! Yard Art is not cheap. I bet her garden was magical at one time.
The American Pickers in me is going crazy 😂 I would love to restore this beautiful yard back to what it once was or buy some of their treasures ❤️
It's an amazing setup
:)
You can tell this was a beautiful, well kept place at one time.
I agree my friend, I bet iit was amazing
What a gardener’s delight this yard was. Maybe they can bring beauty back that they can maintain. Bless you for helping them
You are a golden person. I would run away. You did everything you could, the other shops have to clean up a little bit by themselves or their children, if they have any. I noticed that they have also mowed a small part of the garden, so they still have strength as I saw the master. Thank you for them too and I hope you had a restful weekend!💯👍👍👍
It was a tough one
WOW! Now they can did through their treasures and hopefully pare it down so that the yard can be maintained easier for them. I would imagine that one if not both of them are artistic. I can only imagine how beautiful the yard must have been when it was properly cared for.
It was a nice setup
Not only did you uncover their treasures but you lifted their spirits and added years to their emotional well being! Eric, you are a star in their night sky!
You can tell that at one time this was a beautiful garden.
Omg, that is surely a hidden treasure. I personally wouldn't be able to resist getting it back toa place they can enjoy. Love what you are doing. You are a blessing Erik. God bless.
Appreciate you, feel free to share
Oh what an exquisite little world back there. I loved seeing the fish! So much love went into that garden! What a beautiful transformation!❤
I bet this was a beautiful little secret garden at one time. Such unique collection of treasures.
For sure, so many cool things
This yard was very much loved💐 sometimes life happens and we need to ask for help.
Great work⭐️
They had some amazing treasures in there. What a great little retreat that was and can be again!
If anyone could have made a difference in this garden it was definitely you Erik. What a Stunning Transformation!
Appreciate you!!
That was once a lovely whimsical garden. Glad you were able to reveal this for us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
God bless you, it was a very tough job for you, but it was so interesting watching this video, definitely you deserve a salute. 🙏❤
IIt was a lot of fun
Great Job Eric, I love your hard Work, I love this Kind of work to.
Glad you enjoy it!
Always cringe in case there are snakes or other creepy critters! Nice job and a heart of gold. You are really kind to do this! Reminds me if “Alice in Wonderland” place! So much memories and treasures! Especially the elderly couple who are the treasure and you are the hero!
I can only imagine how beautiful this was when it was maintained. And the treasures you found for them is awesome! I hope this boost gives them a chance to restore part of their amazing oasis!
Me too!
Wow you took a jungle and turned it into a Backyard well done and God Bless my friend Dale from Battle Creek Michigan
Great to see you Dale!
Thank you Eric for doing such good things. Watching you do that on video is like a wonderful stress reliever. May God bless you. 🙏 ✝ 🕊
I agree with the lady. You should be given recognition for all you do. I hope she will be able to get through the TV station. You are doing an awesome job!
LOL, they care about drama not good deeds
This one made me cry!!! Bless your heart Eric ❤️
Was blessed to help them
WOW!! Lots and lots of collectibles!! Erik, you did an amazing job!! God bless!!
Thanks it was a blast
You sure worked your "A" off on that one. Hated to see some of those flowers go, though I also know why. GOD Bless.
It was tiriing
You are a good man Erik!
That was an insane amount of hard work!
It sure was!
Awesome! I want to see what it looks like next year.
Me too!
Who would've thought all those items were hidden underneath all that overgrowth. Amazing what a good clean out can do for appearances.
They must be thrilled to find all of their garden treasures. They have been working on that for years and it only takes a few months for weeds and vines to over run the property! You went gangbusters on that jungle! Kudos for your caring and work!
Erik you are a God sent to these people! I can tell by all the things in the garden they send hours & years making them a little Paradise to enjoy! Thank you for all you do! I watch your videos at your house & these! You are a busy man! God bless you as you serve others!
Thanks, so blessed you take the time to watch them
Erik, you kept finding more garden art at every turn. I wish I new that couple! We'd have a lot in common! You certainly made them happy! Thank you for showing us this clean up!
Appreciate you Pam!
I'm not gonna lie watching you chop those hydrangeas was hard. I bet this garden was absolutely beautiful at one time.
Years ago this was a wonderful place. Such great use of objects.
I really needed this video today. I finally feel motivated to do the things I need to do. It isn’t overwhelming for me anymore. Thank you!! You did a great job!!!!
So blessed you are here! Stop by and say hiii on facebook too
Phenomenal job. Not only the overgrowth but the abundance of yard decorations to work around. They should pick some of their favorites to keep and then have a massive yard sale.
Good day from Australia 🇦🇺 and Good job very well done Erik
Thanks my friiend appreciate you
Thank you for taking care of this. We must look after our elders. ❤ their yard.
Erik, you've breathed a lifetime of memories back into that backyard! Great job! My sister is a horticulture major from college, and, would've had a field-day with bringing back to life that paradise escape from the "rat race" called life and enjoyed a moment of peace with a cup of coffee at the "paradise diner" that is welcoming you to sit at the table and unwind! Nice work, I think Lawton would've gotten a major charge out of this job site!😁👍❤️🐻🎶🧸😿 Doug
LOL, I could have used help on this one too
Wow that was a big transformation, looks incredible. Great job 🙂
Thanks my friend, it was a job and a half
The cut down perennials will come back and then some. Seeds scattered will pop up. Even annuals cut down will pop up somewhere in this garden. Oh if only we had pics of its former glory!
I'd love to see them
You need to buy a pair of snake boots to carry in your truck for jobs like this jungle. Be careful and don't pick up any moving sticks. You are a blessing to many people. Keep up the good work.
Luckily didn't see any
Looks like at one time it was a gorgeous secret garden. Something like what I've always dreamed of having. I love all the little trinkets!
eric this lady loved being out doors as much as you. You are truly both artists one creates and one remodels. You both are one of a kind beautiful people. God Bless you both for doing awesome Gods wonderful work to share.
Appreciae you!
Your videos are so soothing and inspiring. The world needs more people like you. God bless you and I pray that you will enjoy good health and prosper.
