Deer got in my garden. Fuvkers.
Apparently they found enough food to not bother all summer, but now they're getting hungry. I don't begrudge them the lettuce (which is now covered with chicken wire) but I hate when thru bite off tomatoes, remember they taste bad, and spit them out.
Anyway, I did my last tomato sauce a week ago, finished pears, we are eating the apples so no need to preserve, and the last few garden things will be eaten fresh (lettuce, green onions, kale).
My fridge is chock full of root veggies, so we are happily eating through them. I may buy another bushel of sweet potatoes and cellar them in the garage.
