Chipmunks vs. Garden
Garden Gate|Issue 171 - June 2023
Did you know that a chipmunk tunnel can 3 reach 20 to 30 feet in length, often leading to an extensive food cache? I know this because I witnessed it with my own eyeballs in my yard.

Chipmunks vs. Garden

"And then the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to Blossom." -Anais Nin

Years ago, we built three above-ground garden beds in our backyard. A shed stood in the sunny spot where we wanted the garden to be, so we had to relocate it to the shady side first.

What a surprise we found when we did-an enormous stockpile of seeds, nuts and berries that could have kept every rodent in our ZIP code alive until the end of time. We thought about moving it, but we were in a hurry, so we shoveled the pile of trail mix into the trash and hoped Chip and/or Dale wouldn't be too upset.
