When You Lose Your Cedar Hedges You...Plant Corn!

This Spring we were very sad to have to make the decision to remove the dying, 35 year old cedar hedges across the front of our property.  Not only did we lose privacy, but we are now torn about whether to plant new hedges in the fall or put up a fence. 

After the cedars were removed the front yard looked naked, so Michelle came up with a hilarious idea: Let's plant corn!  And so we did, much to our neighbour's chagrin, and here are the results.

Michelle then suggested that we open a corn stand called "The Hedge Fund" and sell the surplus from our garden.  She's just full of ideas... :) 

Corn, the most delicious (temporary) hedge! Maybe next year we'll go all out and build a corn maze in our front yard!  Ok, probably not, but we are still looking for the ideal hedge option.  Ideas are welcome!
