Upon making an unannounced entrance to the hops meadow, we encountered some uninvited guests.
Apparently, hops are considered a delicacy by the deer residing on our farm, since there is plenty of corn and greenery to eat.
Since firearms season is still 5 months away, we needed to apply a barrier method to keep the deer out of the hops.
I constructed 4 ft tall cages to place over the hops. My daughter, Laura helped although she is not pictured here.
Gina (our Black lab) supervised.
