One side of our property borders some woods; in the winter, to save on hay and make the sheep happier, I will trim some of the branches that hang over our pasture for them every day - THEY LOVE IT and it gets the fence line clear at the same time! Of course, it makes more work for me to go back and pick up all the leafless branches later, but they love it so much, I don't mind. Their favorites are camphor (yes, I know, everyone says poison, but my sheep LOVE it AND you should see them when the camphor berries are falling, they make a bee-line for that area every morning to pick up any berries that are on the ground), oak (of course) and their number one favorite is BAMBOO!
