Why I Married Him

Because he's the sort of man who will build me something like this garden fence:




Anti-Rabbit Vegetable Theft Deterrent System 3.0



In addition to putting up with my tendency to apply Moore's law to vegetable plots:



My vegetable garden three summers ago.


All despite the fact that he does not like the taste of brussel sprouts, arugula or peas.

If you don't close up the top, won't squirrels get in?

The tendency of my tomato plants to exceed six feet in height makes building some sort of removable top impractical.

The squirrels do get in, but they have to work at it. I have found that if I leave blemished tomatoes outside the enclosure for them they will go for those and mostly leave the ones inside the fence alone. Squirrels may be talented at stealing food, but they'd really rather do as little work as possible.
