Question
hello,

can you tell me anything about how to get rid of *horse tails"?

Thank you,

Celia

Answer
Dear Celia,
I have two methods.  Depending upon your circumstances, one may not be doable.  I have a beautiful herd of goats that just love that stuff!  One goat will do an amazing amount of weed control.  The other method I have for my yard itself, as goats will also eat fruit leaves and ornamental foliage, I simply make sure I keep it short so it cannot go to seed.  Reseeding itself is the biggest problem in getting rid of it.
Kind Regards,
Kindred

Expertise

I can answer questions in regard to a "basics" approach to agriculture. My husband and I are Messianic missionaries and live on a hobby farmette. We don't have a pesticide or antibiotic on the place. I can answer questions about a simple agricultural lifestyle that affords great independence and abundant tranquility.

Experience

Our agricultural methods are Bible based, we use the term Orthodox organic. We live what we teach.
