The beet crop is growing nicely. But we remain vigilant against the deer. Despite their best efforts, the string beans are holding their front. And have been reported as growing back. I have 7 nice peppers and some tiny tomatoes are appearing.
There has been ongoing discussions about investing in a paintball gun to repel the bandits. Scouting, has reported that 2 fawns have been sighted and added to the gang. But no firm consensus been reached or decision made by upper management. We may need to wait for the inevitable assault on the flowers. By then I fear it will be too late.

Assert dominance! Mark your territory! 🦍
That… or deer are prey species and any scent of humans sends them into a panic…but I like yours better lol means when I scare them off hunting it’s my “dominant presence” and not that I smell bad lol
Some days I want to mark my territory with my 8mm Mauser. (Don’t worry I don’t do those kinds of things) But the thought does cross my mind when I see my “farm” eaten by those godless heathens.
