Weeds and gardening go together. And, as one wit observed, weeding and church have much on common. Both involve much time spent on the knees, only the language differs. So what to make of the town of Weed, Siskiyou County, Northern California? With a motto of 'Weed like to welcome you,' it is located just south of the Oregon border 10 miles (16km) west-northwest of Mt. Shasta, the second tallest volcano in the Cascade Range and boasts a population of some 3,000.
