Title: Karen Sutherland
Karen, Try Memphis Net ( www.memphisnet.net/ ). I got my netting there, 7 feet by
100 feet. I am sure there are other sizes. Very inexpensive also. Good luck. Maury Woodland Hydroponically producing sustainable salad

[mailto:market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Karen Sutherland & Roots Farm Can anyone recommend a good source for bird netting? I need no
bigger than 1/2-3/4" openings as we have some teeny bird pests and
hopefully, a net that is wider than 12-14' and long. I've tried various
plastic nettings but they don't hold up under our sun, whereas an old nylon
fruit tree net that I used to cover plum and blueberries 10+ years in Mass. is
still going strong after 5+ years use in tropical conditions (except for the
places where I had to cut the net to free trapped (and very hostile) boas).
I believe I had purchased that net from Mellinger's which seems to be out of
the INet business. Without netting here it is impossible to bring in a
crop of most any fruit, including tomatoes, peppers, papaya, oranges,
etc. -- Roots Farm Organic Produce Fruits, Roots,
