Garden War I

War has been officially declared by me on the deer of our community. I think every deer in the neighborhood visited our garden last night for a party. Here is the garden a few weeks ago looking lovely. Few weeds. Good dirt. NO DEER.

I am still too upset to take a picture of what it looks like now. The thousands of purple hulls I planned to pick this morning are GONE. HALF EATEN. CHEWED UP. I did pick about a Tripp-size handful of peas.

Such tacky animals to go where they are not invited. Any suggestions on how to keep them out? There are still unprotected veggies left to grow and I want to claim them before the deer get them.
