How the product came to be.

Bob first started growing vegetables after moving to New Jersey (the “Garden State”) in 1997. He stopped in 2003 due to three consecutive years of having his 8' x 10' garden crop destroyed by mostly deer. It was not a gradual thing with deer as they can eat an entire crop overnight.

Bob had tried wire cones and individual cages but they would just be knocked over. Stakes and chicken wire were out of the question because it is an eyesore and difficult to enter and exit for maintenance, attending to and picking his crop. In addition, he did not want the hassle of constructing the unit and then tearing it down every year. He was never sure if what he built would be strong enough to withstand a stubborn deer.

Bob does find growing vegetables to be very rewarding. For him, nothing compares to the taste and nutritional value of fresh home garden vegetables. A home Garden ensures that your crop is grown organically (no pesticides or fertilizers) and is one of the most healthy things you can do for your body.

With the newly developed, dependable and durable fencing products, the Garden Defender has Bob back in business of growing his own vegetables! He now longer worries over having his garden destroyed by the local wildlife. The garden now produces more than sufficient quantities to share with neighbors.
