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.

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

You can't eat the deer more or less immediately?
Go through a deer like a dose of salts through a widow woman....

Here you can only kill them with an SUV.

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...
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

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.

One other story I might have told before, my Dad's great uncle walked with a limp when my father knew him. He got injured in a hunting accident in Central Park. He was (legally) hunting deer. I'm guessing it was around 1900.
