Two herds, built for different ground.
We don't send "some goats." Each job gets a crew picked for the vegetation, the terrain and the audience, and sized to the timeline in your proposal.
Brush Crew
Goats are browsers. They'd rather eat woody stems, vines and leaves at head height than grass, so they go straight for the growth that's hardest to control by hand.
Meet the Brush CrewTypical targets
- Oriental bittersweet, multiflora rose, Japanese knotweed
- Glossy and common buckthorn, autumn olive, honeysuckle
- Poison ivy, greenbrier, blackberry and raspberry thickets
Where they shine
- Steep banks, ledges and slopes unsafe for equipment
- Woodland edges and understory restoration
- Wet ground and buffers where herbicide isn't an option
- Utility corridors, fence lines, detention basins
Meadow Crew
Sheep are grazers. They crop grass and low growth evenly, work calmly around people, and in lambing season they're the best-attended thing on any campus.
Meet the Meadow CrewTypical work
- Lawns, meadows and orchard floors
- Solar arrays, where there are no blades near the panels
- Follow-up grazing after the Brush Crew opens a site
The engagement part
- Visitor and member days, with a handler on hand to answer questions
- Employee wellness and sustainability events
- School and camp visits with our calmest animals
- Signage you can use on site, plus photos for your social channels
Brush Crew first, Meadow Crew after.
On overgrown sites the goats open the ground. The sheep then keep regrowth down and turn a clean-up project into something visitors come to see.
Clearing
A one-time Brush Crew visit, sized in acres and days. Before-and-after photos included.
Seasonal program
Two to four visits a season to keep invasives from coming back. It usually costs less per visit than one-offs.
Event residency
A Meadow Crew stay built around an event or open day, with handlers on site during visiting hours.
