BH has just announced that the pigs have done an outstanding job of clearing their pasture of dockens.  He is going to repair some fencing and let them back into another area for clearance duties  :excited:

I've noticed that the creeping buttercup has almost completely disappeared from their pasture too.  No doubt it'll come back over time, the docken too, but at least it's gone for now.
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
