I have dug it up with a shovel and picked up the top 3 inches and piled it
up elsewhere till the grass died. Very time consuming a lot of physical
work.

You could kill it first, but that would put a lot of chemicals in the
ground. If you don't get rid of it completely it will come back to haunt
you.

I have a nice patch of grass in my back yard I want to convert to garden.
What are some good ways to get rid of the grass - kill it, turn it under,
etc. ?
