Coons Target Kirk Homestead in May Orchard
In May the Kirk orchard suffered nightly raids as raccoons damaged peaches and plums. Though a ten foot deer fence stood, the pests tunneled underneath and stole fruit, while a high wire line and other improvised deterrents failed to deter them. Garden crops nearby also suffered from marauders and traps were set to protect the summer plantings.
