Well, my mother had set out cabbage, broccoli, etc. and as I was walking early this morning thought they looked funny. It looked like they were all dead, so I walked over close to the the plants. ALL had been pulled up and destroyed! Almost no green left and the root ball was laying on the ground. So today I have replanted 32 plants but put them in my raised beds close to the house. I will try to protect them with a net. Don't know whether it was crows or rabbits or something else but need to get them in the crosshairs!

Rabbits did a job on my fall plants I started from seeds (stinking wabbits) so I have went back and bought 4 plants and am thinking of putting them in window boxes so I can drag them in the greenhouse upon first frost and keep them up off the ground so they can't munch the leaves down to nubs. They leave the stem but eat all the leaves off.
