Please don't laugh! Right now the rabbit is winning, nibbling my germinating broad beans and rouge d'hiver baby lettuce at will. Suffice it to say this cannot continue.
Fencing has been purchased but has yet to be installed. I suspect it might get done when/if my emotional state reaches an hysterical pitch over this issue.
In the meantime I've researched natural means to keep rabbits away from a vegetable garden. These include chile powder, garlic, and soap flakes, so I've combined all three in a little ring around the garden.
Another option is supposed to be human hair. So if chile powder/garlic and soap flakes don't work I'll be asking my hair salon for a bag of their floor scraps to test that next.
The chile and the garlic have definitely kept Clifford away from running through the garden; so perhaps this will work, at least until it rains!
Gorgeous new header! Love your blog!
