We have a piece of land behind the stables 55ft x 24ft , apart from 2 well established trees there is nothing around there other than waist high ground elder by the ton , not a piece of ground can be seen.
just wondered if we fenced it off could the pigs go around there for a bit and would they clear the ground elder ?

Well, our Kunes love it, I pull an armful up every evening for them to munch on. So I reckon it's a good idea.

Thanks Dan will get started on fencing as its getting out of control and want it gone before it seeds

Humans can eat it too - said to be introduced here by the Romans to supply their soldiers with fresh veg.

sorry but this might sound stupid but what is ground elder?

A flipping nuisance    - to have in the garden anyway - worse than creeping buttercups

I actually like the sound of a recipe I have just found
Ground Elder risotto with smoked trout and wild garlic fritters
