Mowers quit at 30 degrees. Goats don’t.
We handle the steep, the nasty, and the “no thank you” jobs. Our goats specialize in poison ivy, kudzu, and brush that makes other crews smile and walk away.

FAQ
Will the goats escape?
They try. A solar-powered electric net fence goes up around the work area before a single goat steps off the trailer, and the shepherd walks the fence line every day. Goats respect the fence after one polite introduction.
Will they eat my garden?
Only if it is inside the fence. During the walk-through we fence out anything you want to keep, like roses, vegetable beds and young fruit trees. Everything else is on the menu.
How much does it cost?
We quote a flat price per acre after a free walk-through. The number depends on how dense the brush is, how steep the ground is and how far the herd travels. You get it in writing before the gate opens, and it does not change.
Do they really eat poison ivy?
Yes. Goats eat poison ivy leaves and vines without the rash people get. It is one of their favorite foods, which says a lot about goats.
