With thanks to all involved, I was able to harvest enough fruits and vegetables to share with neighbors and friends this year. ATV traffic through my backyard was halted by the Mexico police and I was able to reconstruct the fence.

Much appreciation to all the people who called, texted and approached me at local fairs to support my efforts. I will continue to work to give small landowners a chance to protect their property in the hope they will continue to keep their land open by choice. I found a great source of help to be the Small Woodlot Owners Association of Maine.
