Hi Alexander,
Its amazing and disappointing how many people advocate slaughtering our native wildlife for daring to approach a human provided feast. SHAME ON EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU... and a POX on your houses.
The onus is on the human to secure the vege garden and there are plenty of ways of doing that. Fencing with either a low voltage electric fence or curling the top of the fence over is the quick fix. I believe spraying a chilli solution around the plants also works.
As for the fruit trees, an adult possum can jump about 1m vertically. Therefore a 1m barrier around the base of each tree will stop any ground jumpers. Jumping from above, fence/roof just needs a bit thinking.
For the bogans amongst us, remember, possums evolved here, WE are the ferals.
