“three sisters garden”....that’s a neat idea....we have 14 acres of “lots” for sale behind us....bare ground waiting for homes....which I don’t think will be coming for years....soooo....I was thinking of using the lot right behind us....and you idea seems good, however, what about deer? Don’t they like all that stuff? I’m NOT putting any fences up. Thanks.
My wife has five large planter beds behind our house chock full of decorative plants that the deer don't eat. Unfortunately, nobody told the deer.
In many cases, the deer don't eat it; they just bite it off and then spit it out. Apparently every deer in the county has to give it a try before deciding it isn't edible.
There is no way that we could plant something truly edible that isn't fenced off from the deer.
