As long s you can keep the critters out of the garden!! Something is pulling my plants down from underground including garlic and onions!!

We think it may be a chipmunk.

And I’ve given up on swiss chard because something is getting over my fencing and scarfing that down as soon as I plant it.

We have already paid for our farm share this year, so thats like money in the bank.

I read on a garden website to put curling ribbon 1-2 ft strips on stakes about every 4-5 feet. This seems to make a noise that most animals don't like and usually stay out of your garden

We trapped a racoon in the corn garden, the rascal pulled up two corn stalks and took one very small acorn squash from the plant. He was taken about 10 miles from here and released.
