Little lambs eat ivy.....

When we moved into our very first house, I had an ivy 'tree'. I became 
somewhat suspicious when the tree dropped peaches in it's first autumn. I 
pulled all the ivy off the tree to reveal an old, but quite healthy peach 
tree (surprise!)
My dear dairy goats kept the ivy from re-growing, but unfortunately finished 
of the poor peach tree... (who said Does eat oats?). I learnt to keep my 
goats away from trees after that.

Cheers, Jan
A kid'll eat ivy too - why don't you?  :-)
