Hi Sandie,

I have the hard copy of Oikos catalog and in it the Honey locust, "Millwood" cultivar is described. I didn't realize that the on-line catalog didn't list it. The hard copy catalog mentions that this cultivar is thornless and was developed to yield large amounts of sugary pods specifically for use as a feedstock. I would think that it would be great for goats. I would suggest that you contact them either by e-mail or phone (see web site for contact info, http://oikostreecrops.com/) and get more details.

Jerome,I can't seem to find the Honey Locus on the page you gave, What are
they listed under? Would thesre be a good food for goats? How would you keep
them from eating the trees ond only eat the fruit? Thanks for your time .
Sandie OR,
