Four-legged weed and brush eaters with an attitude!
We provide targeted grazing services, using our herd of over 230 goats on projects across Washington and over the borders into Oregon and Idaho. Each spring, we take reservations for a spot on our annual western Washington tour along the I-5 corridor.
We are also available for consultation and coaching to help you manage your own grazing animals—goats, sheep, horses, cows— to enhance your own property. Check out our website for more information.
Call or email with your specific challenges, and let's see if it's an opportunity for our Healing Hooves to help you manage your landscape.
Question and answer
Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A. Check references with past clients and Better Business Bureau ratings, just as you would any other contractor.
Q. What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right service professional?
A. Discuss your goals for the how the property should look after the project and establish realistic expectations. Grazing is a green way to manage weeds and undesired plants as well as promote healthy soil and carbon cycling. Goats are not highly nuanced landscapers trimmers and are not as neat as a human wielding pruning shears. They work well on steep slopes, blackberry thickets and English ivy.
Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?
A. I have a strong background in natural resource management, I have Bachelor of Science In Range Management and I worked 14 years for the Natural Resources Conservation Service as a Range Management Specialist.
Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A. Do goats eat tin cans? No, goats do not eat tin cans. It is a myth that goats can eat anything. A number of the plants is people's yards are poisonous to goats and that is why it is so important not to feed the goats.
Is the fence electric? Yes, the goats are kept within an electric fence. The electric fence keeps the goats in the right area and provides them protection against coyotes and wondering dogs.
