Here is the final segment of “Planning Your Garden Part III: Preparing for Pests and Other Nuisances.” After all that hard work putting your garden together, the last you want is for birds, bugs and deer to reap the rewards. That is why planning for pests and other nuisances is so important.

“Preparing for Pests and Other Nuisances” will cover practical ways of warding off birds, bugs and deer, eliminating weeds, and protecting against sun and wind. Also included will be ideas, tips, and products that can make protecting your perfect garden easier.

My hope is that with this 3rd and final “Planning Your Garden” part, you will have the tools needed to make the most of your garden this year.
