Hi I am Tresia and needing help with alot of things. Backyard is very important to me as I lost my husband the day before my birthday 3 years ago and his desire was to have a wonderful beautiful yard. I am all alone, not any family even close to me to help me. I need suggestions that a widow can follow and get help to a complete back yard make over. Any suggestions will be dearly appreciated.

There's a link somewhere on HGTV for "Be on HGTV" that you can look over the listings to see if they're filming anything in your area. Its more likely you can find help from some community group near you.

I suggest you to plant some veggies and fruits with flowers in the back yard and keep your front yard free for lawn.
