permaculture

["roxann" <roxann@ancientearthwisdom.com>]

because the neighbor's cows will come eat my gardens, and so will my goats 
and horses.  also, the cows leave messy patties (however helpful at 
fertilizing) at my doorstep and I don't like it. 

or, 

were you asking why the topic is fence posts? lol.  i started that out by 
asking about osage as a useful living fence, i think.
