Hi Marcy,

Well, I guess I should be thankful I don’t have chickens too! I’m pretty sure we have decided that we will be putting up a fence before next spring. We work too hard on our vegetable and flower garden to donate it the deer.

Thanks for writing in!

Lynn

Thanks Kathy, I’ll add that book to my queue.

I sympathize with you on the deer vs. garden delima! After watching my first garden in Palmer, Alaska go into the bellies of two hungry moose, my husband and I decided that a fenced-in garden was our only option. My idea of a pretty English garden style fence wouldn’t have worked, we had to build strong and tall. (6’5″!) It’s not pretty, but it works. It also keeps our chickens, (the goblins!) out. Chickens can devastate an entire garden in one day.
