In the wheat cropping areas of France
many farms don't have boundary fences
as there are no animals to contain.
After driving for miles with no fences
I was excited to see this hedge
along the roadside boundary of
the Chateau farm.
The Chateau was hidden until we came
to a clearing and
all of a sudden there it was....
a pretty chateau
complete with simple farm fences!
I'm joining Tex for Good Fences
Thank you for your comments
take care and
be kind to one another
à bientôt

I love a nice cedar hedge and the view of the chateau is so pretty. Deer love cedar trees so we've learned not to plant them anymore in our area due to the large number of deer. Have a beautiful weekend Shane.
