Join my wife and myself on our adventure of building our little homestead farm in the Cascade Mountains of the Pacific Northwest. Watch as we establish a garden, orchard, build our home, install solar panels and windmill, apiary, raise rabbits, ducks, chickens, geese and goats. Learn with us as we explore pasture management and forest management, and join me as I build a tree house in the timber upon my mountain.

Deer can easily clear a 6 foot fence. In my home quarter my fence is 8 feet. A 4 foot fence of normal 4x4 wire and on top of that 4 strands of barbed wire. That seems to keep the deer out.

I enjoyed the teaching of putting fencing up. Blessings to you and yours !

One way to stop dear from jumping your fence is to put a second line of fencing. (Just in the needed areas!) Instead of raising the existing fence to a very high level. Come in about 4 feet and add that second line. Dear have poor depth perception. The rows will confuse them and they will move on
