Default mint revisited

One of my daughters has kindly given me a 500g tub of mint, all ready
prepared for pony to have mixed in her feed. It cost approx £7 and I really
wonder if it is worth all the trouble of growing and preparing the mint to
the same high standard when it can be bought for so little money. I will
however still do the nettles as we have heaps of them growing around the
edge of the paddock.

Why not put some stakes into the ground close together at the paddock
edge, so horses cant get between them. Plant mint between them, and
its self service.
