My young trees came from John Holliday near Ludlow in Shropshire, www.johnholliday.co.uk only collection from the nursery or local d...

Pigs love truffles and dig for them, they train pigs (and dogs) in France to find them, although I imagine stopping a fully grown pig from eating one once it found it would be difficult :wink: .
