How to contact get Gephart?

I went to Lowe's early in April to learn how to kill the weeds in my yard and gardens. The man I spoke with David, from the Lawn and Garden Department told me to use Roundup on everything and the grass would come back in a few weeks. it did NOT! When I returned to Lowes for additional help the same man said "Use a rotor tiller.". I explained I only had two hands and a shovel. He said "Oh well we have a dairy farm with big equipment that's why we use Roundup. You will need to replant your landscape or buy what you need here and our experts can assist you." He then sold me several bags of steer manure and Kentucky Blue Grass seed. In the beginning, I returned to the Lowe's here in Harrisville a number of time to purchase more landscape supplies however, I became so annoyed with the lack of service and knowledge of their employees I quit going to Lowe's and went to Walmart or Home Depot. This has been a horrible nightmare because my only income is RR disability, I have a mortgage payment and a large yard with a flower bed in the front and vegetable garden in back. I have spent more money than what I could afford for repairs to my landscape. Additionally, I am a 60 year old single female and I weigh 97 pounds. Will you please help me?

You can contact Matt Gephardt at 801-839-1250 or gephardt@kutv.tv. Just visit the KUTV website for more info. For legitimate gardening info, your local University Extension service always offer wonderful advice and information on gardening to the public and it is not tied to commercial offerings as they're not trying to sell you anything. They often have booths at Farmers markets or you can contact them directly. You should consider contacting an organization such as Youth Impact Ogden to see if they do any service projects. The Harrisville Senior Center might have some ideas of other organizations that might have volunteers interested in helping out with your project. I know it's too late to undo the Roundup debacle, but for future reference, there are usually many better options than killing things with chemicals. If you enjoy and appreciate nature, you may wish to consider natural methods to solve future garden problems. They can't solve everything all the time, but often they are very efficient & allow you and the world around you to enjoy a healthier environment without undue exposure to chemicals. The extension program can provide many options in this direction.
