Afternoon All,

I have been offered some Silver Birch, Rowan and Hazel trees and I was wondering if any of these are toxic to any livestock?

Many thanks!

You can collect and process silver birch sap to a sweetener so I doubt it's poisonous (and it;s soemtimes used to make wooden spoons etc) and there's plenty on my land that the sheep ignore anway. Hazel they love. Rowan might be toxic to livestock but whether they'd eat it i don't know. I've got some in my hedges but the berries tend to be out of reach.

I don't know if trees are listed here but it's quite useful anyway
