We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.
As a retired builder, your garden and garden fence looks great. You and your wife did an excellent job. I appreciate your sharing and your deliberate diligence to plan. Blessings on succeeding to being as self sufficient as possible...☝🙏💪👉...
I really like this. This looks like what I need for my yard. Fencing in gardens is probably going to be a big need in the next coming months. Thanks for sharing your concept. Love it.
you got a great lady do all you can to keep her happy!!
That music never gets old and goes great in these videos
Love to watch you grow! You are both amazing and thank you for what you're giving everyone!
What a beautiful job on the fencing . I think the dogs are more of a problem than the wildlife . LOL .
Great job Evan! Have a wonderful week! GOD BLESS!
Your garden fence has turned out great. 2 puppies at the same time is definitely a challenge, but well worth the effort.
Good job on the fencing. I have the same fencing around my property and have discovered that rabbits will go right through the 2" opening. You will need put some fencing with a tighter weave about 24" all around the bottom to keep the rabbits out. I had to put rabbit fencing, 24" all around my property to keep them out. I just put it on right over the 2"x4" wire I had already put up all around the bottom.
Your place is gorgeous and you building videos have helped me so much. 55 year old woman here doing this myself.
home depot sells the galvanized staples for your gun 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" both 1/4" crown , you might be able to put a double slide type barn door gate on the fence, just a thought
vaeagle1 they sure do! www.homedepot.com/p/Grip-Rite-1-1-4-in-x-1-4-in-18-Gauge-Galvanized-Narrow-Staples-5-000-Count-GRL15/204716817
Securing the bottom of sliding doors is a challenge, especially with no center post or ground plate
Mate, try oiling the staples with old oil to preserve them. It will also help protect the fence. 🇦🇺
My wife and I love your garden. It is a fantastic set up.
I came across your channel a few weeks ago and managed to watch 90% of your videos. It gives this almost 60 year old hope in fulling my country life style living. Thanks
I think the garden and fence are beautiful. It will be nice not having to worry about critters getting in and wrecking all your hard work.
Great garden space. Be proud of that project, for sure!
Awesome job.
I just admire the way you put this fence.
Good organic gardening.
😀😀😀
What a gorgeous day there in Illinois! Wow.
You fence looks good to me. You both did a good job. Even when you look at corner of the fence back towards the house the fence blends in nicely with the house.
Fantastic job. You two do such a great job at bringing your dreams to reality!
Quickly becoming one of my favorite UA-cam channels. I sure do enjoy it. Take care
Looks great Evan!!! Definitely envious of that enclosure... And the nice thing is at the end of the season You can lock the goats and chickens in there to clean up from the post harvest
Next video is gonna show two perfectly dug tunnels the dogs created to get in by...:)
Your place are beautiful and need. I can see you are a need and discipline farmer. I really enjoy your work, I am to old to do farming anymore, use to farm. I live in South Africa, Freestate province. Blessings.
That's a solid (and easy) fence method. Thise pocket screw are no joke!
Garden looks well prepped and I think you are going to have a wonderful harvest. Stay well and safe, both of you.
looks really good, and when you find galvanized staples post them up as I would like to have some myself.
Looks amazing! Now we know how we will do ours!! Wife loves it!
Really love these videos in the morning with a pot of coffee. Thank you
Your garden looks great. You've done a beautiful job!💪
Country View Acres, thank you for sharing your video 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
I feel for you bro!!!!! I’ve got a 6 month old puppy. His name is Eli and he’s a miniature wire haired dachshund and teething like crazy. He has a basket of toys and shoes and a couple of sticks. And that’s all. I was supposed to get another one a month after him but she didn’t wire out. I’ll put it this way, I’m glad I ended up with just one for now
I think you did a very good job with the entire fencing. Be proud of your design and work. Hope you find galvanized staples
Great job, I am going to do the same. Thanks!
Really a good looking fence Evan and Rebecca. You both do a great job.👍👍 Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Now you have fence trellis to grow climbers, beans, peas, tomatoes, etc, it look fantastic , great job the pair of you.
Good job Evan,and Rebecca.It looks like it will be there many years.Your garden is going to put out lots of vegetables for you. Got bless
Love seeing what folks do in/with their gardens. Hope you'll share the garden's progress over the Summer.
Puppies..... it’s a good thing they are cute otherwise they would be hard to keep to being a well trained adult. They will get better Australian shepherds are extremely trainable they just are so smart they get bored and find all the trouble to get in. Good luck and happy gardening!!!
Nice job
I like how the fence turned out. Thanks for sharing.
Love it
The fencing looks amazing...... You are truly very talented.......

Garden fence looks fantastic! Love the step-down.
looks awesome really nice looking garden
I think it turned out really nice 👍.
Them dogs remind me of ours when he was a pup , omg he tore up EVERYTHING 🤣🤣 stay safe & god bless
The fence looks great what about the small animals rabbits, possums, ground hogs. They can fit through those holes in the fence. Chicken wire on the bottom of the fence.
Yep we had rabbits squeeze through our fencing! Wrapped it in 2 foot chicken wire on the bottom. They chewed through the plastic netting lol.
You did a great job Evan.
I love it, looks great!!!
Happy to see you wearing safety glasses . I can't count on bother hands how many nails screws staples I have seen come through the ER where I work ! Many times resulting in a lost eye ! That being said love the fence and your çabin !
Looking good!! Thank you for sharing ❤️
The fence is beautiful! 😊❤️🐾🐾❤️❤️❤️
May I make a suggestion for your gates...put a false post in the centre to hold your gates stable. Your post in the centre of your opening needs to have a cemented in metal post in the ground cut at ground levelthen your post sits inside this so it can be removed if you need the double gates opened. This way you can open one gate at a time but both are latched to the centre post but both gates are hinged on the outside posts. You'll find it so easy to use this way. Love your whole garden.
My chocolate lab ate my entire back yard, including deck and plantings. Oh, and my watch I left on the patio table🐶🐶🐶
@Pat Wanner, and it lived long enough to eat the watch?
You did a great job on installing the fence
I used black plastic netting, easy to put up with staples, been in place two years no problems.
That looks awesome. 👍👍
Looks dam good you did a real good job
I wish I had a fence this nice! Great video👍
DUDE! That's amazing!
Nice job it looks great
Like the use of the Kreg jig
THANK YOU!!!! I’ve been trying to decide how I wanted to build the fence around our garden. Ours is pretty close to the same size as yours.
Very nice, great job!👍
JudithB The fence looks great! I plan to build hoops for 2 of my new beds but I will put netting on first for summer use, putting plastic or cloth on for winter. I want to be able to turn my chickens in during winter to clean weeds n bugs out, but still be able to protect winter crops too! My dogs learned pretty fast to stay out of my gardens, but biggest problem is deer, so my fences are 7'.
I like the way you are working. Greetings from Germany
Looks great! Your whole homestead is beautiful!
Good looking job. Only suggestion is I would have placed the top boards on the outside of the posts with the wider side facing the inside/outside. The would have been less likely to sag over time.
Nice job! Looks great 👍
Instead of doing the galvanized staples, you could get some 1x4 and cover the fence at all the posts. It would secure everything and finish it off really nice.
use top rail for chain link fence and make gates fasten welded wire . you can get stainless staples from amazon. you could also use treated furring strips and screws to cover edges of wire.
I ordered stainless staples last night. 👍
It looks great
As for closed gate or door to the opening on the garden; I would suggest a pallet door set vertical to the opening. You can fence wire if you need to keep the animals out.
I love the fence never saw anybody with a fence like that sorry about the dogs ruin your greenhouse cover garden looks beautiful be safe
Good job Evan.
P.s fence looking great 🙂
I pinned my windows on the outside (new trim &new windows) so I used stainless steel,might think about that if they sell them? That sure is a nice fence around your garden you did a really good job...thanks for all your cool videos
it's a great project and the main reason I'm interested is to be able to grow food that will save the household, a fair chunk of money. inflation is a big motivator. And since I am well aware, that pesky critters can sabotage gardens, I'm not willing to try to rely on growing produce for food, knowing that some of the crops could get ruined. i'm not rich enough to just joke with other people that oh heck, the squirrels ruined my tomatoes.
Outstanding!!!
Really looks nice.
looks good
Great looking garden!
Looks great 👍
Good job on the fence.
Well you did a great job there, you little cutie.
Nice job, Evan
Nice looking fence. You might want to keep your hoop house close for this coming Friday night as it is suppose to get to 34 in Western KY.
Looks good! LOL I thought that bird was real at first. Fooled me, must need another cup of coffee? Thanks for sharing. Angel from The Bay
I think I'm around the same latitude as you are - surprised your trees are not yet filled out.
Build your gates in four sections. Double doubles hinged in the centre of each. That way easier to build, easy to handle and only need half the space to swing open. Similar to fold back doors but just hinged gates
Great video! I have dogs too, but my dogs are older and they know not to go near my plants. I have a big problem with rabbits though; they keep eating my stuff especially the winter greens, onions, peas, and more. I have to build something around our vegetable area, but I don't think I can do what you did; beautiful work you did with that fence :)
Maybe break down each side of your garden down into "bite sized" panels of a size that you CAN work with - then assemble them together around your plot?
Tip: Snap a line along your horizontal, then drive in 1-1/4" Torx screws, with fender washers, leaving enough gap for the fence. Hang the fence on the screws and tighten from the ends.
Good job, looks good
