What is going on with parking at Ribfest

The instructions online are extremely unclear and all the map links are dead so we're going to a municipal lot but for next time:

  1. Which parts of Cobourg are considered downtown?

  2. Do you need to order a visitor pass if you're staying less than 3 hours?

  3. Which zones can you actually book pay for using the Honk app and which require a permit from the city (there is Honk signage everywhere)

I live in Southern Ontario. The front lawn was patchy when we bought the house and I'm no fan of lawns so I decided to let it do its thing for a few years -- besides the occasional mow to keep the neighbours happy -- and hope it would resolve into something pleasant.

3 years on it is abundantly clear to me that that isn't going to happen and I'm stuck wondering what the hell to do with this mess. Just looking at it makes me feel guilty. It's an uneven mess of random weeds and I am fighting a losing battle against some very spiky thistle.

I don't have a ton of time to devote to fixing this up but am still holding out hope for an ecologically friendly way to clean this up, ideally sooner rather than later. I'm open to building up a garden a piece at a time but my first priority is getting it to a state that doesn't look a mess. Open to any suggestions.
