I needed a new design for my cattle panel trellis, one that I could easily move year over year, now that I am following a 10-year crop rotation and am only using a trellis in one of the ten beds every year. This new design was pretty quick to execute, inexpensive, sturdy, and can be easily moved next year to its new location. Plus I get two, 8'-tall surfaces on which to grow vining crops. Enjoy!

Honestly I can’t believe I never thought of it…this is WAY easier than what I’ve done in the past.

Thanks for sharing. Knock on wood, 'my' rabbits are focusing on the crimsom clover, etc. cover crops (and dandilions) right next to the garden. More problem with squirrels burrying nuts in my bed! One instance last year of a groundhog eating beet leaves. I'm thinking a 10 year rotation might be a bit of over thinking. That said, I probably will fine- tune the placement of one of my 3 cattle panels. If I get to it, need to pry 4 tposts out of clay down deep; tough but not nearly demanding as some shovel/drainage work I desperately need to do!

I have such a long rotation because of the solanaceae plants…I grow a ton of tomatoes, potatoes, and peppers and they end up using three of my ten beds. So it’s not something different every year for ten years, more like solanaceae one year, a year or two “off” and then that same family, again.

PS: The reason for moving said trellis is to to give about 1 foot space from the edge of the bed and (via t-post) float the cattle panel a few inches from the soil so peas, cucs, whatever can be sown directly under and hand pulling weeds is easier. That 1 foot edge clearance makes it more convenient to plant greens, herbs for repetative leaf harvest without reaching through the fence. That said, a panel directly touching earth or within a bed is a better barrier on outer edges for those rascally rabbits...

I’ve seen others (like Roots and Refuge) use a panel suspended a bit above the ground and I really like it for (as you said) easier sowing and weeding. You’d definitely need well-anchored supports, though!

Looks like a mighty fine build to me. I am just too poor on ss to do such a nice job, lol.

I think this is the cheapest version I’ve done with cattle panels (no T-posts!) but in the past I’ve also built trellises using reclaimed wood and they did the job, too. Just more of a pain to move/didn’t survive the move. 🤷‍♀️

Bunnies? Try predator urine at the outside of the beds and spraying your plants with pepper water. Boil some hot peppers and use the water on the plants. Only you're probably going to net to respray after each good rain.

I do have a Golden Retriever and am still trying to get him to pee where needed…ideally along the garden fence. He’s not the brightest bulb, though 😕

@nicholasbenedetto6319 I know; I just don’t love the thought of applying it. I may have to get over that, though!
