. During one conversation about deer problems I told someone about the Sweeney's All Season Deer Repellent we were given which worked well and said I'd put the info on this page. So here 'tis.  all-season-deer-repellent
 
One nice thing here, after Ivy died in late February 2009 we were "dogless" for the first time since we were married 45 years ago.  Dick and I realized that we were going to be tied up with plant sales and lectures for the next several months and we thought it would be best to wait to find a new dog. Much backing and forthing this fall while I looked at shelter sites, so many homeless animals out there, they just break your heart. We finally decided partially because our daughter wanted to get a puppy for their kids for Christmas and we thought it would be a good idea if we got siblings. So on Christmas Eve two little butterballs came to the farm. The kids were totally surprised Christmas Morning when they opened a large box containing a leash, a collar and finally a large bag of puppy chow. They named their pup Buddy and we named ours Holly. Partially as a posthumous salute to Ivy (As in The Holly and The Ivy) and partially as a tribute to Greg's hometown Lubbock Texas' favorite son Buddy Holly and partially in hopes that Holly's feet would golitely over my plants. The first photo is Holly at 8 weeks, second and third photos are at 4 months. We got this wonderful girl  from Lake Country ASPCA Lake Country SPCA
Holly is two years old now and she is one of our joys. She and her brother get together on a semi regular basis to remind us that they are still puppies. She has turned into a great companion who travels almost everywhere with us. Many of our customers have gotten to know her at the various plant sales we attend.  As the third photo demonstrates, she has a central place in our life.
