Farming & Deer Damage

Deer Damage on Winter Squash
Among other things, LFLF got a couple of small squashes last weekend ..... You're heard of personal pan pizzas?  These are personal roasting pan squashes!  Anyway, one of the things we also noticed were some of the deer damaged winter squashes at the market. 
Beaver Farmers' Market - More Deer Damage
The veggies are perfectly fine to buy & cook, but you can imagine the disappointment in finding these in the field.  Just one of the many things that can go wrong during the growing season.  The deer don't care about all of the hard work that goes into growing these beauties!   Anyway if it's any consolation, the opening day  of deer season for the majority of hunters in Pennsylvania is Monday the 26th.  Most farmers welcome respectful hunters if you've made yourself known & asked permission before deer season.
