My grass is a foot high in some places

I have a row of trees, hedges, bushes, etc. at the back of my yard. I didn't care what grew there, I just stopped mowing around 6 feet from the fence. Now it looks wildly overgrown around the trees. The weeds may be mostly one plant with many woody stems and a vast root system. I squatted to lift with my legs, then used an ax, then a shovel to dig roots out. I figure this is the best time for yard work, after the summer heat and before the ground freezes.
