Opossum Garden is an installation in someone's garden that interacts with an opossum by providing it a safe and sustainable habitat.       

Opossum Garden is a small habitat in a humans garden that can provide the opossum with a sustainable food source and even a place to nest. Opossums are nocturnal marsupials that eat meat, plants, insects, carrion, amphibians, reptiles, earthworms, birds, and small mammals, as well as seeds and fruit.  It consists of two dirt piles one that is 40 centimeters tall and 110 centimeters wide and a smaller one that is 30 centimeters tall and 5o centimeters long. In the taller pile, there is a one-foot trench that provides shelter and a place to nest. The smaller pile has a bunch of vegetables that attract worms and food for the opossum. All of this allows the Opossum Garden to attract opossums to kill any and all of your garden pests.
