Deer - Free Garden Fortress

Great site! Here is a photo of our fenced-in garden. So far, we have had very little deer activity, although the woods near our house is home to many deer. They are beautiful animals and I have always enjoyed watching them. However, after several seasons of losing all our vegetables to the doe-eyed denizens, my husband threatened to get out the 12-gauge. Not wanting an antlered trophy in my dining room, I had this 8-foot fence installed. We have noticed some deer tracks near the garden, but so far, no deer have jumped the fence.
