Very nice garden and beautiful property!! I built 9 garden beds at the start of covid and added drip irrigation so I never water -- it was a game changer!

a Block of wood and and a clamp will hold your cross posts ,,, Very nice !

That turned out SOOO beautiful!!! It looks totally professional. If it were mine I would add a bench outside to just sit and admire the garden or perhaps you'll put your Adirondack chairs out there. Bubby looks like such a friendly cat. He always wants to be close by where you're working!

Thank you so much! A bench is a great idea! I’ve already been brainstorming some ideas 😉 Bubby is great company. Sometimes he’s in the way, but I appreciate his enthusiasm to see how he can assist haha.

👏🏻😁👏🏻😊👏🏻😁👏🏻😊 You did an excellent job!!!! I'm looking for ideas on fixing up our property & adding a garden & you've given me inspiration!!! 👏🏻😁👏🏻😊 Stay blessed

Very Nice. My tip, if you are going to expand it in the future. When I fenced around my driveway, I used similar construction to your fence but used cedar boards instead of wire. To set the 2x4s, I put wooden screw clamps on the post at the desired height and just laid the 2x4 across them. I screwed in the pocket holes from the top and plugged them. I've also used the clamps as a saw guide to cut a flush top. I wasn't lucky enough to be on the flat.

Yes here too in south Louisiana,no water needed,the ground already has more then enough.

That is the best looking fenced in garden I have seen on you tube! nice work.

Gorgeous ❤❤❤❤ love the fenced in garden area and the arbor’s are adorable❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You're amazing! My garden heart is green with envy! Beautifully done! :)

This turned out beautifully! When you stain the boards that come in contact with the soil, make sure you use a food safe stain since you’re growing food (versus flowers).

I LOOOOVE this so much.❤❤❤ I want to replicate this somehow into my garden, mainly to keep the deer and rabbits away from my plants. Gonna be brave and go for it!

Love this, I've probably watched it 10 times as I'm getting ready to re-fence my garden and plan to follow this style. I love how you keep it simple and don't make us feel like it has to be perfect. Definitely makes me feel less intimidated 😁

I love the proportions of this design; it all flows so well! You did an excellent job keeping things from being "zig-zaggy" (I'm totally putting that word in my vocabulary 😁). I can see why it's one of your favorites. I would not have thought to utilize the paver base and the spaced pavers the way you did - that turned out really well and I may have to "borrow" that idea for a future project. I will have to admit that I'm slightly skeptical about whether your enclosure will discourage deer... perhaps Kentucky deer aren't quite as adventurous as South Carolina deer - our deer don't care a fig about our four-foot fences!

So happy I can help add some more “fun” words to your vocabulary 🤣 I’m full of made up words I can share 😅 To be honest, we had ordered a ton of paver base for a turf project that didn’t work out and I thought…this is a great way to get rid of it 😆 I’m just glad we had somewhere to put some of it. We will see about the deer. So far so good 🤞 Ky deer are pretty skittish. We may hand some wind chimes or something to make noise out here and I’m betting they’ll get spooked.

This garden area looks fantastic, Shara. I'm thinking that you and Danny are going to use and enjoy this area for years. Thanks for sharing this project with us.

I can actually help you on the post-holes. Recently, I've been learning about how to DIY a water well, watching several videos about how to dig your own shallow well. Many of these DIY videos featured a manual augur, with a 5/8" shaft and a wood handle. This attaches easily to 5-foot pipes to extend the handle, so you can dig deeper and deeper wells... 5' 10' 15' etc. I decided I must have one, so I headed to my local desktop PC to shop at Amzn. I found several apparently good augurs, by reading the Reviews section on each product. What stood out to me was something I hadn't thought of (but now will never forget): Post-hole diggers. MANY of the reviewers commented that they used their augur to dig post holes and ALL repeated the same thing: Once you dig post holes with a augur, you will never go back to that old two-shovel model post-hole digger again. They did mention that rocks and roots could be a problem and you'll have to dig those out with shovel or other tools, but it seems to me that's a minor irritant that anyone would have to deal with. So now I have two reasons to buy a manual augur. (I want to build a fenced garden, too.) I'm thinking this is something you may want to look into.

Gotta love a gal with sawdust in her hair! WELL DONE!

looks great! what you could do when setting those long upper horizontal 2x4's is use a scrap piece of 2x4 and clamp it to the 4x4 at the height you want, then rest the 2x4 on top of the scrap and level and attach the opposite side of the 2x4, then just go back, remove the clamp and the scrap piece and attach that side

Well planned and well built, lots of good ideas and cool design.

So happy I found this channel!! I've been wanting to learn how to build a fence just like this

The garden looks beautiful! You gave me some good ideas for my own, too, so thank you for that. I love that your cat is named "Bubby". My mum has always called me Bubby, and I've called all of my cats, regardless of their actual names, "my Bubbies". That word means "my very favourite thing", which I didn't realize until I was in my mid-40s, but it definitely seems an appropriate nickname for my cats. We also call all if their favourite toys their "Bubbies". 😅 Anyway, love the garden! It looks fabulous!

That's gorgeous, Shara!

Your fenced garden is gorgeous, love it!!!

This is really impressive looking! Everything looks great and I enjoyed watching this come together. Thanks for sharing this.

This is awesome! I have been trying to decide on a look for a space I'm enclosing. I only have to make two sides - coming out from the corner of my house and turning to my deck. It's for an 18' x 24' space I have that's next to my tiny back deck that's off the kitchen, and I want my veggie garden there. My dad taught me well and even though I'm in my 60s now, this is a project I can tackle with a friend easily. Thank you for showing how it's done!

What a beautiful build! Love it.

Great job.

I actually like the spaced out pavers. I'll keep that idea in mind for my own garden

Wow! Beautiful work!

Looks great! A clamp is a great set of "extra hands" in a pinch.

Thats beautiful!!! Great job!!!

Shara, that was a lot of work but you make it look easy. Both Bubby and I appreciate your efforts. The end result really makes your artistic talents shine. We've been blessed with a couple of days of rain here so my carport project is temporarily on hold. I think the sun will shine this afternoon with cooler temperatures so I'll be back at it.

This is beautiful! We built a 42x42 enclosed garden a few months back and your garden has inspired me to add ground level flower beds all around the inside! We have several raised beds and a few planters currently. Looking forward to more videos!

Liked your extra effort with the 2x2s as trim to frame out those squares. Nice overall job. 👍

Wow. Love it. you're so talented.

Wow!! You did an excellent job putting this together. Looks great!!! Thanks for sharing.

THANK YOU.. and using Phone was amazing idea :)

Nice work! 👌

Thank you for posting this. I'm looking to do something very similar to my existing raised beds.

Impressive.

I love your videos. Thank you so much for taking the time to make them. I’m going to start beekeeping and this is perfect for the area I want to create. Also, I’m rehabbing a house. Your videos have been instrumental in teaching me and giving me confidence. Thank you.

This is so pretty. Definitely saving for when I get to build mine. I think I need to substitute the welded wire fence for hardware cloth or something to keep the birds and rabbits out of my blueberries, but it’ll be heavily inspired by this design. Such nice work. You made an instant fan.

Absolutely beautiful

This looks great! Definitely serving as inspiration for us.
