That would look normal around here, but not down where you are :)

I want to start one this spring myself.  My folks always had one, but I never have.  I do a lot of cooking at our house and I'd like to raise my own stuff, like San Marzano tomatoes, herbs, onions, bell and other pepper, garlic, etc.  Just stuff I like to cook with.  I've got about 10 acres, so maybe I'll find a spot to try my hand at it.

If I can keep the deer and rabbits out of it, that is...

I love my veggie garden.

I stashed a bunch of stuff in the freezer last fall and we are still eating it.

That snow is mostly all gone now, only lasted one day.

IT IS A POPCYCLE FARM

(http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk243/supro66/popcycle.jpg)

When I was about 5 there was a song out by Burl Ives " The lollypop tree"

One fine day in early spring
I play a funny trick
Out in the yard behind our house
I planted a lollipop stick
And everyday I watered it well
And watched it carefully
I hoped one day that stick would grow
To be a lollipop tree

Refrain:
Aha-ha Oh-ho-ho
What a sight to see
Me and my lollipop, lollipop, lolly, lolly, lollipop tree

I can't find all the lyrics but in the winter it was a popcycle tree

I found the song

A former partner of mine uses an old radio, with a long cord, in his veggie garden to keep the deer out. He says they don't like rock music ;D

Use use a long cord also.
On the other end of it is an electric fence.

I don't know if this is true.
An old pig farmer told me he had an electric fence around his pigs.
The fence worked on the little pigs but the big pigs would brush against it and they enjoyed it.

Now we were sitting in a local bar at the time after work.

Nothing like a greenhouse to chill out in. Specially if there's a fuming female in the main house. I keep an ice chest, space heater and cot ready at all times. Hot house plants are good friends. An ancient neighborhood cat appreciates it in there too.
