Bird Netting Frame
Apr. 19th, 2012 06:09 pm I've been having fun making things out of PVC pipes. Last summer, I made a frame of PVC pipe to support bird netting over the blueberries (we tried using bamboo and green balls for joints but they didn't work well).
A. wanted some sort of protection for young plants from birds (we already have a 4' high fence surrounding the raised veggie bed to keep out deer, turkeys, rabbits, and ground hogs). I ended up building a plastic frame out of PVC pipes to go over the existing fence and attach to the side of the barn. Over the frame will be placed bird netting. I made the frame higher on the barn side, so if we cover it with plastic to make a temporary green house in the spring, the water will run off of the roof.
