Outdoor garden, deer, and other critters

I want to start an outdoor garden however my local deer population are adorable, not picky, and very brave. Case in point, I was playing around with a raised container to see if I can plant something in there that would work and they still chomped down on garlic and onions that I planted in there. There are also underground garden threats like groundhog and bunnies.

The only thing that I think may be successful would be a raised bed system that is caged and covered with chicken wire underneath but those systems seem to be in the 2k-3k price range. Does anyone have any recommendations that may lower the upfront cost? I’m open to other types of systems if you also have adorable vegetarian ninjas who give no f’s about what they chomp on.
