Electric fence doesn't keep the rabbits out.Netting has kept them out of my beans enough to let the beans grow, but they've broken right through the netting to get at my chard.
It's hit and miss this year ... tonight's dinner was pasta with broccoli, zucchini and arugula.
I picked the zucchini tonight just after a rain, fairly small, knowing it would be a ball-bat if I waited until morning. The blossom had closed for the night. I held the squash in my hand and felt this ... vibration ... like it was an appliance that it resembles physically.I opened the blossom and SEVEN honeybees flew out.
Last year I saw not one honeybee on my property. Not one, all year. I am soooooo happy they are back - at least for now.
