Wonderful crop. I hope you are now inspired to grow even more veggies next year. It looks like you have a lot of land.
wild hogs? Is this a common occurrence? Will they come back?

Thanks! Yes wild hogs, and yes very common to this area, but they're also pretty unpredictable. It's been a year or two since I've seen any before this last time. However, they came several times in the span of a week and tore up close to a 1/4 acre. A small (4-7) group of them would show up around 4 am in the morning just digging around uprooting everything. It's really amazing how much they can destroy in such a short time! They're known to be very intelligent, with an excellent memory, so its not too surprising they haven't returned after I shot at them the last time. Hopefully they won't! I read certain smells (humans and predators) will keep them away, only time will tell.
