I have suffered the same fate due to people wanting to "help" Son ran over strawberries that were in a mound type system with the riding lawnmower. My husband finished them off the next time thinking they were already dead. 2 bareroot raspberry bushes? pulled up. weedeated onions and melon vines. then there is the squash eating kitty that thinks the plants do not belong in my garden. He also rolled all in my newly planted seeds and now I have what I believe is a watermelon plant in the middle of a row. Caught my other Cat trying to dig up newly planted tomatoes. I will be happy if I have anything to harvest.
