I'm still working on the summer garden...will winter garden someday...maybe next winter? This winter's goals are: learn to bake bread and sew a patchwork quilt. I only wish I had a beautiful hoop house full of winter greens to keep me fueled for these projects. Thank you for sharing your knowledge...I appreciate it a lot.

But I know you have dogs, and it would be kind of mean to leave warmth-loving cats in a hoop house. <br />If you have cat-owning friends, maybe you can groom them and strategically place lumps of cat hair around the garden? I don't know how effective dog hair would be, but cat hair works as long as you refresh them regularly. I've seen mice in my compost bin, and my neighbours have had mice in their flats, but I've never had them nibbling at my garden, which I attribute to the cats hanging out amongst the veg.Dahlia ChanTanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09761052647377223709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4778141609680363377.post-47676932929180762072010-11-10T09:10:48.877-05:002010-11-10T09:10:48.877-05:00I am thinking a cat as well.
