Planting advice.
Deer and rabbits can be a real problem for many gardens not just damaging your plants but hurting your inspiration and energy levels for gardening at all. Not to mention hurting your pocket!
Below is a list of plants that are usually deer and rabbit resistant. I say this because if we have had a particularly cold or snowy winter a hungry deer/rabbit will eat anything!
