RE: Failures in Living Sustainably: Growing Food for Groundhogs

Dang, that sucks! Didn't know a groundhog would do all that. I think we've got prairie dogs in our neighborhood, but they haven't come to our place yet. Just moles here, which aren't a threat.

It's ok... it means we have one less task to worry about! Not really giving up actually, the fence is now without holes and we're keeping an eye on it.

I also have been letting the milkweed grow and something ate all the tops!!! I wanted to try the flowers as fritters...

With eats milkweed??? Is it useful? I thought it was poison.

Supposedly cooked shoots, leaves, seedpods and flowers are edible (they say it is poisonous when raw). And I hear they are also great for monarch butterflies!
