Welcome to HumblevilleUSA! Please visit our blog at www.HumblevilleUSA.com and share your ideas with us!

What lessons did we learn in 2016? What projects to do the girls and I have in store for 2017? What can we do to get more produce into the house and on the dinner table?

The big (for us) pumpkin was our crowning glory. Deer enjoyed more of the squash than we did. Mint is almost impossible to not grow and is at least as robust as our chive patch. The girls often times come in from playing outside with their breath smelling of the odd combination of mint and chive. The broccoli was absolutely delicious, and those eating it were shocked to find out that I served it steamed and plain! They would have bet there was butter and seasoning on it. Nope. Straight up broccoli.

We had success in growing tomatoes and peppers in buckets in other parts of the yard where the deer were more hesitant to go. Expanding on this sounds like a good idea to us!

Do you have any inexpensive fence ideas to share with us? Please do so below.

GOD BLESS !!!!
