Goats on the Mow

goat_eating_grassNext spring I hope to be able to tell you that instead of mowing your lawn with a gas powered lawn mower you have have it cut by some earth friendly goats. I’ve been working on the finer details but the jist is that 4-6 goats will come to your place and hang out for a day or so depending on the size of your yard. They’ll eat some grass, pass along some fertilizer which we can either take with us or rake into your lawn and be cute the whole time. Then they’ll move on to the next yard.

Hey I have been saying for YEARS that I don’t mow lawns goats do so it would only make sense that I put the idea into practice. I’ve talked to animal control and they are completely on board! Man I dig this town.
