I feel your pain. last year my dogs destroyed a lot of my tomatoes to get unhatched eggs I buried under them. this year I will bury only whole eggs as they don't stink and dogs don't smell them.
I planted oaxaca corn (about 40) in a sunken bed and "naked green seed" squash/pumpkin around. I could not find the name in english. so 2 sisters are in.
also transplanted a red current. unfortunately black current died.
I wish I could do more gardening but chicks have hatched, now 1 turkey...
as I live in a windy area I always plant 2 peppers next to each other then leave some space before planting the other 2. that way they support each other on a windy day.
I know nothing about goats. that didn't stop me getting 4 of them, lol. (wanted 2, had a chance to get 3 for price of 2, the last one was a swap for a pair of chocolate muscovy ducks).
they don't fruit in winter. I had tomatoes for 2 years and peppers for 3. they don't have many fruits if kept so long, so not really worth it. also tomatoes don't taste good in cool weather.
my starters are stunted due to cold weather. now we have summer heat. I wonder if I'll have any tomatoes and peppers this year.
I first have to build goat shed and 2-3 coops then I'll have time for gardening.
small area to bother. I put a pallet and a long piece of styrofoam. transplanted some tomatoes, peppers and eggplants. ok at the moment. when plants grow big my dogs don't enter the garden. I still have some leaks and kale so watering and waiting for the new plants to grow.
