We brought the big ewe flock, around 220 sheep, in around the house to help trim the grass and weeds.  They really like the goldenrod in the meadow area, just beyond Joy's flower garden.  Its hard to see, but I put up an electric net fence to control the areas where the sheep were grazing.  We hadn't planted anything in the meadow, it had just grown up and was pretty much taken over by the goldenrod, which grows prolifically around here.  We are curious as to how quickly the golden rod will leaf back out and are wondering if a goldenrod pasture for the sheep would be viable.  We will see.
