found a hoofprint in one of my beds. how can i keep deer from eating my plants? located on public property so i cannot watch them nor can i use a bird speaker. i was thinking of getting a coyote decoy.

Hello hello,

What I thought was perhaps an interesting flower popping up next to my cherry tomato has indeed turned into a corn plant. I didn’t intend to grow corn, and never grew any before, but am also curious how growing one would turn out lol (picture in comments)

But really, I love my tomatoes – is there a chance this might cause issues for my tomatoes? The plant popped up maybe 4 inches beside my tomato and I have not had the heart to pull it until today.

i don’t know what to do about this plant it is covered in bugs

Yes hello, I have olive orchard in central coast of California. I have goats and chickens as livestock only as I grew up with them so incorporation was easy. I have recently planted hedgerows of pomegranates and windbreaks of fig and plum trees to help mitigate evapotranspiration, contain livestock, and provide food/wine produce. I also have marigolds, lavender, and rosemary within orchards to attract pollination. The olives(all 7 varietals I’ve planted) have a few more years to maturity. The only produce I have done so far are annuals in ground after both goats and chickens successfully rotationally grazed/cleared the land that had primarily invasive species growing. What other livestock and plants would be good to add? Feral pig, deer, quail, and turkeys frequent the creek in my wildlife buffer-zone. I have experience with commodities common to Balkans/Mediterranean so such things would be easiest to incorporate. Thank you.
