I see Dandelion, and Wild Dill. Both are edible!

Getting rid of both will be very difficult, since they reseed readily. This will take a few season. The first will be killing off any living plants (I use boiling water for this, since it won't poison anything), and the second will be making sure to kill off any new instance.

Make sure to kill anything before it flowers, or you may be starting over!
