Farm, deer and garden
What we fence
Garden fence
Wire mesh fencing that keeps rabbits and other animals out of a garden.
Deer fence
Tall fencing around gardens and plantings. Deer jump high, so height matters.
Horse and pasture fence
Board fence, rail fence and wire for paddocks and pastures.
How we build
Why our fences don’t lean after the first winter
Connecticut ground freezes deep every winter and thaws every spring. That cycle pushes shallow posts up and out of line — so we dig below it.

Set by hand
Frost zone: soil freezes and heavesFrost zone
Concrete footing
Frost line · 42 in
Gravel base for drainage
Dug below the frost line
Post holes go about 42 inches deep, past the soil that freezes.
Concrete footings that shed water
Crowned at the top so rain runs off instead of pooling at the post.
Strung, leveled, measured
String lines and levels on every run, so lines stay straight and tops stay even.
Tested before we leave
Gates swing and latch, and we walk the line with you before we call it done.

FAQ
Farm and garden fencing questions
How tall does a deer fence need to be?
Deer can clear a low fence easily, so deer fences are tall, often 7 to 8 feet. In Connecticut a fence over 7 feet needs a building permit, and town zoning may set its own limit. We check before we build.
Can you fence a large property?
Yes. Tell us roughly how many feet and what you are keeping in or out, and we will walk the line with you.
What fence works for horses?
Board and rail fences are easy for a horse to see. We will go through the options for your animals and your land.
