Who needs a tiller?

When we decided this fall to let our pigs roam our one-acre seed garden until they grew to adult size, we knew that they would like to root around in the dirt.  We did not know, however, to what extent they would do so.  They have not only systematically gone through every row, but have also dug around the perimeter of the garden, pulling up roots and extra tidbits, aerating the soil all the while.  Who needs a tiller when you have pigs?
