New to this gardening game. Had a garden a few years back, measured 4ft by 4ft. Had all kinds of things growing. Not too successful considering the size and soil (clay). But was happy still to have a few tomatoes and beans. Now I am living on a farm and plan on having a huge garden, but will need tips. The first question I have to ask is how to keep animals out of my future garden. Just planted some strawberries and already something is digging them up. Raccoon? Rabbit? Skunk? Squirrel? Can't see the culprit. Been thinking of buying the ultrasonic yard protector, but does is really work. Any advise is welcome. Thanks

Hi ginpie from central Illinois. Rabbits seem to be my pests, they ate my green beans every year until I learned not to plant them. Wannabe

Greetings from West Tennessee. Unfortunately, critters are a problem for lots of us. We'll all try to put our heads together.
Hello from another Ontario gardener. Where abouts do you live in our province? It could be any or all of those critters you mentioned.
