Building our Veggie Garden

This is our new Spring Garden project. Like everyone else we are dealing with this pandemic. So happy to have an outdoor project!

We have had a little vegetable garden for a few years (no fence) but the deer were coming through & enjoying the "all you can eat buffet" we were offering. 

If we were going to have a vegetable garden we had to have a deer fence. 

Here is the sign I made from an old piece of wood.

This is how we started. My husband took apart our old raised beds & began building new ones.

He laid out the raised beds and built a frame all around it with 4x4's attached to the beds.

Once it was all framed out we wrapped it up with deer fencing connected with zip ties. Found everything we needed on Amazon. Now our friends the deer can look but not touch!

We found pavers on the curb someone was throwing away and used them for our path. Added cedar chips as well. The vintage metal chair you see on the right is going to be used for a fairy garden. (I'll do photos when complete) Looking forward to be able to be with my granddaughter again so we can decorate it together.

Our plan is tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, bell peppers, my sunflowers & some lettuce. Maybe some micro-greens in containers.

Here he is..my husband, Barry. He built the most perfect garden and I am so excited to be able to start planting our vegetables. This garden has brought so much joy.

Love, Tami
