Title: Beech hedging and goats
Post by: DavidandCollette on September 15, 2019, 02:51:57 pm

There is a beech hedge near to where I plan to put goats. Is it safe for them?

Yes, ours love beech. (And ash,oak, willow, alder....................)

The real question is 'Are the goats safe for your beech hedge?'!

I would say it is safe for the goats, but potentially fatal to the hedge!
