Is she sure it's coons? They come and eat my vegetables, particularly eggplant, on occasion but
they've never dug anything up. On the other hand squirrels will dig up newly planted stuff looking
to see what's under it. I understand gophers will do that too. Only way I know to protect them is to
put a cage over them until they are established.
