Are there Herbs that will deter Deer from the garden?

Yes... plant a fence.

Yep, I agree completely.
Absolutely the only thing that has a chance of working.

I've tried everything else. If read the deer don't like this,
they don't like that. Well, the truth is, they may not like some
kinds of plants, but they'll eat them anyway.

Last year I put up a 6 foot high fence:

I have high hopes for this working.

6 ft is not high enough, they can clear that flat footed.

I know, I read 10ft is what's required.

I'm hoping the dense vegetation on both sides of the fence will
help. In places where there is a clear landing zone now I plan
to add plantings or other obstacles.

Most of the deer I see around here are accompanied by fawns.
I hope the fawns can't jump the 6 feet high.

If the town allowed 10 foot fences, I would have built one.
