Re: [GWL]: deer proofing

Unless the policy has changed Fish and Game Dept has spec sheets for building an effective deer fence and will pay half the cost if the fence is built to their specs. They won't mind if it is for a business like Nichols Garden Nursery. They paid half for fencing Territorial Seed Company's trials grounds. WITH THAT FENCE I NEVER HAD A DEER IN MY GARDENS.
