Seen that recently on our local news where the Parks Dept. is using a herd of goats to clear some weedy overgrown areas. Goats are contained with a few portable panels and are free to roam and munch to their hearts content. Parks Dept. said the cost of renting the goats was less than the cost to pay their employees and maintain mowing equipment. Sounds like a win-win. And the report mentioned that goats will take care of a Poison Ivy problem also. That's got to be a big plus.
