What We Do
We use goats and sheep to graze yards, lots, pastures, rangeland, retention ponds, and more while targeting noxious weeds, overgrown vegetation, and brush. We can even graze fire lines to help mitigate the threat of wildfires. We have the ability to seed some areas with native grasses or a seed mixture of your choice. We work closely with an agricultural consultant who can provide direction on what type of seed to use.

How We Do It
The goats and sheep spend most their time in electric netting fences to intensively graze small sections at a time. If it’s not possible to put up electric netting fences, we use well-trained border collies to herd the goats and sheep keep them grazing on a specific area.

Who We Work With
Professionalism and customer service is important to us. We strive to be flexible and accommodating with our customers. We expect the same from our customers. We partner on projects with private individuals, businesses, groups of people, cities, counties, states, The Bureau of Land Management, The US Forest Service, HOAs, farmers, ranchers, associations, and more….

Why We Do It
With the urbanization of our world, we want to protect the land that’s left and promote healthy regeneration. Our services are more environmentally friendly and more economically advantageous for those trying to fight noxious weeds and overgrown brush. Chemical herbicides and chemical fertilizers are increasing in price and hard on the ground. It’s simply not sustainable in the long term to use chemicals this way. It damages the soil and makes the ground less productive over time.

Why We Use Goats
Goats are hardy ruminants. They possess remarkable qualities that make them an excellent choice for targeted grazing of noxious weeds. Their voracious appetite and natural inclination for browsing enable them to effectively target and consume invasive plant species. Goats can navigate challenging terrains, reaching areas that may be inaccessible to machinery or humans. Their digestive system is able to process and break down a wide variety of plant matter, including thorny or toxic weeds that other animals would avoid. Through their grazing activities, goats not only control the spread of noxious weeds but also contribute to ecosystem restoration by promoting the growth of desirable vegetation. Goats provide significant soil benefits through their natural processes. Their droppings, rich in organic matter and nutrients, act as a natural fertilizer, enriching the soil and promoting healthier plant growth. As goats roam and graze, their hooves gently aerate the soil, enhancing its structure and drainage while reducing compaction. This natural soil aeration facilitates water infiltration and nutrient absorption, creating a favorable environment for beneficial microorganisms and plant roots. Through their dual contributions of nutrient-rich manure and soil aeration, goats play a crucial role in improving soil health and fertility.
Their eco-friendly approach offers a sustainable and chemical-free alternative for managing weed-infested areas, making goats an invaluable asset in the realm of targeted grazing.

Why We Use Sheep
Hair sheep are great for targeted grazing and invasive grass control because they are hardy, efficient grazers that thrive in a variety of environments. Unlike traditional wool sheep, hair sheep have a natural resistance to parasites and are well-adapted to grazing tough, fibrous vegetation, including invasive grasses. Their selective grazing behavior allows them to focus on specific plant species, helping to reduce the spread of unwanted grasses without harming native plants. This makes them an effective, sustainable solution for land management and invasive species control.
