How to Kill Grass in the Garden

I never had grass in my vegetable garden. Somehow last year grass started growing and is now taking over the garden. I tried killing it with plastic over the winter but it did not work. It seemed to help it. How do I kill the grass without using chemicals or not hurting the soil for the plants?
