We build three trellises out of fence components and cattle panel that we expect to last through Florida storms... including hurricanes! We show you how we do it, what parts and tools we use and what to watch out for on the way.
We also build a frame without a panel for our tomatoes. We can always move panels around afterwards and having the frame in place serves multiple purposes.
We'll include some links to some parts and tools below, along with a timing index so you can jump to any part you need if you want to skip back and forth while planning your build.
If you have any questions or if there's anything we missed or can clarify, leave a comment below and we'll answer all we can!
