This is of interest to me. The county health department recently told me that tree in the lateral field of a septic system is a good thing as the absorption of water by the roots helps keep the lines from getting water logged. Also, I recently heard (I think on this forum) that black locust is not a recommended fodder for goats as it is toxic to them. Anyone else hear this?

I have black locust taking over my yard. It has sprung up under the
house,
invaded water, leach and septic lines. It was in the yard when we
bought
the property. I would be careful planting it as a border.
