Home/Residential
For homeowners
Get your yard back.
Overgrown banks, poison ivy where the kids play, a wooded lot that's gone to briars. Grazing handles the parts of a property that mowers and crews charge a premium to touch.
Typical residential jobs
If any of this sounds like your place, call us.
The bank behind the house
Too steep to mow safely, so it's gone five years without attention and now it's briars and vines to the treeline.
Poison ivy and poison oak
Along fence lines, up trees, around the shed. Goats eat it without any reaction — no spraying near where your family and pets are.
English ivy and honeysuckle
Pulling down trees, swallowing beds and outbuildings, and coming back every time you cut it.
The wooded back lot
You want the trees, not the tangle underneath. Grazing opens the understory without taking the canopy.
Creek and pond edges
Ground you don't want to spray and can't get a machine to without tearing it up.
Small acreage gone wild
Two, five, ten acres you bought and haven't been able to get on top of. This is where grazing is cheapest per acre.
What to expect
Honest expectations for a home property.
Most residential jobs run a few days to a couple of weeks depending on how thick it is. A small herd handles a typical bank or back lot; the fencing footprint is usually smaller than people expect.
You'll be left with an open, browsed-down area — not a landscaped one. Stems and woody material stay unless you add mulching or chipping. If the goal is a finished look, we'll tell you what the add-on work costs so there's no surprise at the end.
The goats generally stay on site around the clock until the section is done. They're quiet, they don't smell, and most families end up watching them more than they expected to.
If you have a dog, we'll talk it through — some do fine alongside the herd, some need to be in or leashed while the goats are there.
And yes — plenty of customers book us partly because they want the herd on the place for a week. That's fine by us. The one thing we won't do is bring goats out where there's nothing for them to work on: the animals need the browse, and you shouldn't be paying us for scenery.
