They are often placed in fields along roads to catch the snow before it blocks the road during snowstorms and windy times. Here's a video that explains them! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiQXNujxmUw "They start nowhere and go nowhere..."

It also costs money, and we've talked about going a more third-world creative route (like in the African video) and weaving our own fences. This is where a nice stand of clumping bamboo would come in handy! So far, I haven't gotten that to grow.Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471919576687777886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2441208913735496942.post-50281387053805157052013-04-12T07:26:01.053-07:002013-04-12T07:26:01.053-07:00That snow fence is really attractive, Dani--would ...That snow fence is really attractive, Dani--would work for a lot of projects.

This gardening project has gotten to be a big venture! LOL. I'm seriously considering worm composting, and keeping that set-up on the back kitchen/pantry this winter.
