Video Tape Fence

Here at Whisperwood Farm, we use the latest technology to increase and protect our crops. Most people have heard of barbed wire and electric fences, but have you heard of a video tape fence? The tape from an old VHS cassette was used to protect our fig trees, as shown in the photo. You should see it in action! The tape flickers and hums in the slightest breeze. It should be quite effective in deterring the deer. A convenience store in Burlington has hundreds of old movies for $1 each. So this could be the cheapest fencing material available. We plan to try it around the larger garden and raised beds too. Notice the clover in the unmowed areas. We need to get our bee hives.
