Protect Plants With Mesh Trampoline

We had a few plants that had some veggies on them. Because of a lack of hot sun and the air cooling off, we talked of cleaning the garden up and digging everything under. Then our oldest son came over and said just put your trampoline over the plants. In a few days, the last little growth would happen. We asked why and he said the ginseng growers use a mesh like the trampoline has.

So we dragged it over and the men placed it over the plants. In 6 days, we had red tomatoes and small but tasty green peppers and a few other in ground veggies.

That was last year. This year, we moved the trampoline around the yard to help dying grass lol. The grandkids are always looking for the trampoline and wondering if they are able to use it.

Hi - sounds like a good idea.
My problem is our insurance company charges a stiff premium if you have a trampoline and it has to be completely fenced in or no coverage.
I will look for something similar for next year.
Thanks
