With the many animal foragers we have around us, I needed a better plan for my vegetable garden this year. Deer and rabbits decimated previous gardens, mowing down beans and nibbling away at tomato and pepper plants. The solution came in pairing marigolds with my veggies, planting them both at the same time. The animals don't like the smell of marigolds and leave plants growing among them alone. So far, so good this season!
