Did you wake up last Saturday to water in the street, a dead car, or some belongings floating by in the basement? You're not alone.

Before my backyard was fenced, it was a 5-star restaurant for the local deer population. After losing hostas and impatiens summer after summer, and giving up on tomatoes, eggplant, and squash, I purchased a few large garden containers from Costco for my deck and never looked back.
