My new place has a small garden bed and I’m wanting to try and plant some vegetables, but there’s weeds all throughout.

What’s the best way to clean this up and how do I prevent them from growing back? Or should I just create a new area and start from scratch?

Money is tight, so I’m trying to DIY this.

Do these stairs look like the wood needs replaced?

Or do they look fine enough they can just be refinished?

Trying to figure out what to do before it gets worse
