Seriously. This is the actual fencing inherited from our farm’s previous regime. Splintered boards cobbled together; rubber strips replacing post-and-rail; baling twine and wire; protruding nails; gates that clip to trees. It all gives “patched together” new meaning. We’ve done our best to document these extraordinary creations.

If you have extra, just throw it in the thorn bush.
Gate posts are overrated.
Perfect!
