4. FENCING Fencing: Pigs are a serious problem in the Garden because they dig around the roots of plants, often killing the entire plant. To the pig, it makes no difference that the plant they are killing is one of the last plants of that species in the world. It just tastes good. Parcel 1 . Repair and replacing current fencing on the southern boundary of the Garden by the Visitor's Center is needed to prevent trespass, provide security for this high-activity area, and exclude pigs. (Figure 6, below) Parcel 2. We plan to fence around the former Amy Greenwell residence and along Mamalahoa Highway to prevent pigs from coming in. Due to the steep drop-off to Highway 11 on the west side of the house, a chain-link fence is needed for children's and public safety, as this is planned to be a program and activity area, with a coastal view. Fencing is also planned around the proposed Septic System and leach field, which also creates a private yard space for the eventual caretaker. (see Figure 5) Parcel 4. Pig damage is a constant problem with the mauka lot, which has never been fenced. Also, this parcel, yet to be developed, is being encroached upon by neighbors and needs maintenance. The lot is covered with tall guinea grass which is especially abundant during rainy season. Once fenced, any animals trapped inside would be caught and given to pig farmers who volunteer with the Garden. The property boundary will be surveyed prior to fencing, and a gate installed (Figure 7, below).
