Need Advice on Fencing a Small Vegetable Garden
I am trying to fence a small vegetable garden to prevent rabbits from
eating my string beans. By the way, I am living in northern New Jersey area. - How tall the fence should be? Is 2-ft tall enough? Rabbits in this area are not that big. They are around 3/4-ft long when they are sitting on the ground. - I am planning to use a wooden fence with stiff plastic net mounted on the fence. My question is: What type of wood should I use? Is pressure treated wood good? Because it is a vegetable garden, I am afraid that using pressure treated wood may not be appropriate (I don't really know if I am worrying too much). Should I use pressure treated wood as poles, and use cedar for the rest of the fence? Should I use cedar to make the whole fence, and use metal pole-footers/pole-anchors for ground contact? I welcome any suggestion. Thanks. Jay Chan |
