Unfortunately for you but fortunately for us... we did not have those issues in our garden. My first idea was putting chicken wire but rabbits can crawl under it and squirrels can climb over it. Now I know that you can control bugs by planting certain flowers like Marigolds, I wonder if you can plant some flowers/plants around that repel little creatures... or maybe opt for the pots to see if you have better luck. There is several varieties of vegetables that would do fine on hanging baskets. The other method I heard yields better crops is growing plants upside down (Google "growing tomatoes upside down"). Planting is fun! love to hear what you come up with! Lisseth Hi Lori!

Two summers ago my daughter and I shoveled out a small rock filled space in our backyard. It took days, but we did it and we bought the cutest little white picket fence to go around the garden and we got a tiny little sign to place in the middle. Our tomatoes and jalapeño peppers started to grow and our watermelon was tiny but getting there. Guess we made our garden too inviting becuase either squirrels or rabbits came and feasted. I'd love to try again this year, any advice on how to keep the little ones out or the garden? Also, I too love herbs and I had lots of luck with my parsley, chives, basil, and cilantro. I did those in pots and nobody came near them. Thanks for the Tabbouli salad recipe, it looks delicious. You have inspired me to try my garden again.
