I use a temporary fence every year to protect 2 gardens now. The deer & raccoons are terrible.

[GRIT Magazine @GritMagazine]

A portable electric fence can let you graze areas you wouldn't otherwise be able to, is easy on the land, and can save money when compared to installing a traditional permanent fence. Learn more about grazing with portable fences below

Just posted this to my IG. Hope it sends the right message, but it’s time I start asking for support from the community, before I really get in a financial pinch. I can probably fund the farm for about another year by myself. Unless I kill it in the markets this season.

Looks like we have been lucky not to deal with these. I have a friend in TN who is covered up in them.
