I like her post-page, thingy...she does "Garden Up Green". She & her Dh are working on making a Tiny Home & planning on selling their acreage in 1 acre parcels for a Tiny Home community.
That is a very cool idea for keeping garden bugs at bay. You would have to really plan out where your plants are going, keeping the lower growing together.
I would be able to do this is the separate beds, they are more like a raised bed, but not the large garden, the rows of veggies are too close.
**This is what we are thinking of doing for quail, maybe not as tall, but tall enough for both of us to walk through..only needs to be 5'5" at most. Hahahaha

This is for the strawberries. It also has a brick circle walkway. We got tired of stepping on plants & fruit. It gets hard to keep your balance as you get older...that's what I hear anyway...
We would put lots of ground cover and such to really make it as natural as possible for them.
Still not sure if we would keep them through winter. Have to think on that a little more, but not against hatching new every year...ie: see broody cordon-chicken or purchasing youngsters. They lay eggs so much sooner than the big girls a real plus.

The LF are too big for quail eggs. They are likely to crush them.
