Mmm... a dish of dandelion greens would go nicely with a roast rabbit with sage and bacon (recipe by Delia!).

Actually goats aren't all that keen on soft green stuff - they prefer something more crunchy and will happily much on a tree's foliage. We once had five goats in a paddock surrounded by elder trees. Their favourite food was ivy but within a few years they had killed all the elders by eating the foliage and the bark. We were quite pleased as we wanted to get rid of the trees. The grass in the paddock was still two feet high though!
