What Goats Eat

 

Goats are ravenous browsers that can not get enough of that sweet green leafy stuff! 

 

~We excel at browser clearing!~

 

Goats browse.  That means they like to eat leaves--especially from unwanted non-native invasive plant species like Bush Honeysuckle, English Ivy, Multiflora Rose, Privet, Japanese Honeysuckle, Bradford Pears, Climbing Euonymus, Poison Ivy, Blackberry, and Black Locust.  They just love these invasive plants!

However, goats do NOT eat the stems, the stalks, nor the roots of your problem plants! Goats are simply the "first tool" in getting your area under control.

 

 

Goats are the orginal Brush Hog.

 

 

 

What They Don't Eat

 

Grass and tin cans!  If you need a lawnmower service, we recommend Lawnly, the Uber of lawn care.

Also, no ornamental plants and shrubs!!!  Many of these are poisonous to goats (and other 4-legged animals), and we won't touch them!  No, thank you.  Also, and especially, these plants will not be eaten: Mountain Laurel, Yew, and Rhododendron.

We do not want the goats to eat your pretty plants any more than you do.  And, we will separately fence off any areas that would get the goats into trouble.

 

Working Goats

What Jobs Are Best for Them?

 

  • Yards with Invasive Non-Native Plants

  • Understory in need of clearing

  • Poison Ivy covered Fences

  • Overgrown Fencelines

  • Small Backyards

  • Areas in Need of a Firebreak

  • Vine Covered Anything

  • Blackberry Barriers

  • Out of Control Privy Hedges

 

Really, anything that the lawn care services look at and cringe!!

If they don't want to do it, well, we do!  If we can get a fence around it, the goats will eat it down to just stems--I like to think of them as next winter's kindling, and our gift to you.

Would you rather hire an expensive bulldozer to take care of the vegetation, or hire a quiet herd of non-polluting Greedy Goats?

 

 

Goats are  better than poison--and, cuter, too!
