Goat grazing for homeowners

Overgrown hillside behind the house? Poison oak creeping in? A goat herd clears residential land naturally — no chemicals, no machinery on your slope, and honestly, it's fun to watch.

Common projects

Backyard brush

Dense brush and scrub on larger residential parcels, grazed down without hauling or dump fees.

Hillsides

Slopes that are unsafe to mow and miserable to clear by hand are routine for goats.

Overgrown lots

Vacant or neglected parcels brought back under control in days, not weeks.

Poison oak

Goats eat poison oak readily — no protective suits, no herbicides near your family.

Seasonal weed growth

Spring grasses and weeds grazed before they dry into summer fire fuel.

Defensible-space support

Reduce vegetation near structures as part of your broader defensible-space plan.

Please note: to keep transportation emissions and costs reasonable we generally require about a 5-acre minimum per project — most small backyards aren’t a fit. Neighbors sometimes combine adjacent properties into one project to meet the minimum.
