A guy near here had a problem with acorns that fell on his garage roof
and driveway. This was a good mast year. I went over and he filled my
truck with acorns. I've been throwing a bucket out every day. The pigs
also run in the woods and find mast. Good free food and my pigs last
year were really good.

I'm starting a piglet or two in March when the goats freshen and will
go them mostly on goat milk. I want to butcher them really small for
barbecue.
