I must have a deer that crosses my yard on occasion. It doesn't bother my tomatoes, but it loves nibbling on my asters.
Home grown Tomato's are to die for,wonderful flavor,great on hamburgers or sliced, and a little oil and Vinegar as a salad. I'll sometimes take a sliced Tomato,and put a scoop of cottage cheese on it.
Another favorite is take some sourdough bread,butter it up,slice a Tomato,salt and pepper to taste,and either shredded,or sliced cheese and then in the oven's broiler, just enough to melt the cheeese and crisp the bread. Yummm.
