There are some advantages to growing your garden up instead of out and trellises are a fun way to add a second dimension to your vegetable garden.
The trellis of my choosing is the standard cattle or hog panel that can be purchased at our local farm stores. They come in 16-foot lengths. Cattle panels are typically 52 inches tall while hog panels are 34 inches tall. Put one on top of the other with a small amount of space and you can make an 8-foot fence.
