We have been threatening to start a garden for years.
We have a rather large flat area in front of the woods with good sun exposure pretty much from late morning to late early evening .
My daughter said she really wants to do it this year.
My buddy is an expert garden guy. Been doing it his entire life. I can borrow his rototiller and his guidance.
I figure, some tomatoes, bell peppers, carrots, lettuce, zucchin, green beans, etc.

Do it. It's therapeutic. And ain't nothing like fresh food.
Only problem may be getting seeds or plants. Might want to get varieties that you save seed for next year, but talk to your buddy. He'll know best.

We have deer, rabbits, squirrels, raccoons, etc. It will be a challenge.

Problem here is you need a six foot fence around it or the deer eat it more or less immediately.
Also I can’t garden and Rachel doesn’t want to.

Go through a deer like a dose of salts through a widow woman....

True story...
Had a first cousin who lived in upstate New York for several years. Alan was a gung-ho deer hunter, hunting them with every legal means allowed by the fish & game department down here. Usually tagged out.
When he moved up there, he was warned by the locals about gun season. Seems like all the fools would come traipsing in from the NYC area...Many of them not very good hunters and worse shots. Around the small town in which he lived, they'd have at least one accidental shooting every year during the gun season.
So, for the entire time he lived up there, he put his guns up and used his compound, then his recurve and finally he did most of his hunting with a long bow. Still tagged out.
Apparently, New York deer were easy...

In Illinois, it takes a Mercedes, right @mark ?

Upstate they open bow season a good month before regular season, like late September, Oct 1st. Regular season might go 1 November to the second week of December, then there are another two weeks when only bows are allowed.
But Christmas to October is off season, so by the time 10/1 rolls around they are pretty complacent.
Believe it or not, Westchester has a bow season only, but in select areas, exclusively in the northern part of the county.
