the garden pest problem + doomed wasted crops gave me a idea
Make Bird Aviaries for each of the Square gardens and call them Plant Aviaries with module add-ons
- keeps plants safe from pests
- allow the use of add-on's to control weather elements (Sun, Rain, Cold)
Addon's
- Twinwall Polycarbonate Sheets - Green House mode / Rain Control
- Cheese Cloth - Sun light and heat control (Maybe even some bug control)
Chicken wire + Pallet wood could make (Donations of Chicken wire rolls is prob's you best way of getting them)
As for the Polycarbonate Sheets you can get Clear ones (For Green Houses + tinted ones for light control but the double wall ones offers even earlier starting growing season + Longer Season + more robust than glass)
By Giving both the Polycarbonate & Cheese Cloth there own module frames would allow them to be added and removed with ease plus also provide extra support and strength
This also allow for easy moving of the Whole Aviaries due you can flat pack them for transport

This is a very good idea. Never thought of cheese cloth. I can get it cheap at the dollar store so even if it lasts a single season its worth it.
Too late for this year but certainly for next year this is a good idea.
Thank you.
