"Our freezer is full of corn, beans, squash and tomatoes from our garden, not to mention huckleberry preserves and frozen berries for juice and milk shakes."

That sounds really good MamaD. Do you have deer around there? My problem is they eat everything here. I've heard fabric softener sheets are somewhat of a deterrent.

Do you have deer around there?

Yes we do. This past summer they didn't show up to eat the veggies until most were completely picked, except for the broccoli, melons, pumpkins and squash, which they devoured. They put chew marks in some of our tomatoes but didn't eat them. They liked the strawberries, so I learned to keep them covered at night. Last summer we had bear scat behind the corn, but never saw the bear.
