Our Services
Flexible & Scalable Services
We work with homeowners, municipalities, land trusts, utilities, and organizations of all sizes. From small private properties to large-scale wildfire prevention projects, we customize our grazing services to meet your specific needs.
Targeted Grazing for Fire Mitigation
Our goats and sheep provide an eco-friendly, cost-effective solution for reducing wildfire risks. By clearing dry brush, weeds, and overgrown vegetation, our grazing herds create natural firebreaks and help protect communities, properties, and open spaces.
How Goats and Sheep Help Prevent Wildfires
Creating Natural Firebreaks
Wildfires spread quickly through dry grass, brush, and low-lying vegetation. Goats and sheep specialize in consuming these “ladder fuels” — plants that allow flames to climb from the ground into shrubs and trees. By grazing these layers down, our herds create natural firebreaks that slow or even stop the spread of fire.
Tackling Tough Terrain
Many of the highest-risk areas for wildfires are steep, rocky, or inaccessible to heavy equipment. Goats and sheep thrive in these environments, safely reaching places machinery can’t. Their agility allows us to manage vegetation in challenging landscapes that would otherwise remain overgrown and dangerous.
Sustainable Vegetation Management
Unlike mowing or chemical treatments, grazing is environmentally friendly. Our animals selectively feed on flammable plants like dry grasses, weeds, and invasive species — reducing fuel loads while improving soil health and promoting the return of native plants.
Cost-Effective & Long-Lasting Results
Grazing not only reduces immediate fire risks but also helps prevent regrowth. Goats strip bark and leaves from invasive species, slowing their return. Sheep graze grasslands evenly, lowering overall fire fuel. This natural method can reduce the need for repeated mowing or spraying, saving time and money in the long run.
Working with Nature, Not Against It
When you choose targeted grazing, you’re not just protecting property and communities from wildfire — you’re investing in healthier land. Our goats and sheep recycle nutrients back into the soil as they graze, leaving the land more resilient, balanced, and beautiful.
Vegetation & Land Management
Whether it’s clearing invasive species, maintaining pastures, or restoring native landscapes, our herds work efficiently on terrain that’s too steep, rocky, or difficult for machines. Unlike heavy equipment, grazing is low-impact, sustainable, and beneficial for soil health.
How Goats and Sheep Manage Vegetation & Land
Targeting Invasive Plants
Goats are natural browsers — they prefer leaves, vines, and brush over grass. This makes them excellent at controlling invasive species such as blackberry, poison oak, thistle, and other unwanted plants that choke out native vegetation. By repeatedly grazing these plants, goats weaken root systems and reduce regrowth over time.
Maintaining Healthy Grasslands
Sheep are grazers — they feed primarily on grasses and ground-level plants. Their steady grazing keeps grasslands trimmed to a healthy height, preventing overgrowth that can fuel wildfires while supporting the regrowth of beneficial forage and native grasses.
Natural Soil Improvement
As they graze, goats and sheep fertilize the land with their manure, returning nutrients directly back into the soil. Their hooves gently aerate the ground, improving water absorption and helping seeds establish more easily. The result is healthier, more resilient soil without the need for machinery or chemicals.
Managing Hard-to-Reach Areas
Unlike tractors or mowers, goats and sheep can navigate steep hillsides, rocky outcrops, and dense brush. They go where machines can’t, clearing vegetation in challenging landscapes while leaving minimal impact on the environment.
Sustainable Land Care
Traditional vegetation management often relies on herbicides or heavy equipment, which can harm ecosystems and soil health. Livestock grazing, by contrast, is renewable, low-impact, and beneficial to biodiversity. Over time, it restores balance to the land by reducing invasive species, encouraging native growth, and creating healthier habitats for wildlife.
Environmentally Friendly Solutions
Using livestock for land management reduces reliance on chemicals, fuels, and machinery. Our goats and sheep not only control unwanted vegetation but also fertilize the land naturally, promoting healthier ecosystems over time.
Why Grazing is an Environmentally Friendly Solution
No Chemicals, No Pollution
Unlike herbicides, which can leave harmful residues in the soil and water, grazing uses the natural appetite of goats and sheep to control unwanted vegetation. This means no chemicals, no runoff, and no risk to pets, people, or wildlife.
Low-Carbon Land Management
Heavy machinery like mowers, tractors, and chainsaws burn fuel and release greenhouse gases. Goats and sheep, on the other hand, run on plants. By replacing machines with animals, we dramatically reduce the carbon footprint of land management.
Soil Health & Regeneration
Every graze nourishes the land. As goats and sheep move, their manure fertilizes the soil naturally, adding organic matter that improves fertility. Their hooves also gently till and aerate the ground, boosting water retention and encouraging seeds to sprout.
Supporting Biodiversity
By targeting invasive plants, goats and sheep make space for native vegetation to return. This, in turn, creates healthier habitats for pollinators, birds, and other wildlife. Over time, grazing helps restore balance to ecosystems and strengthens biodiversity.
Zero Waste, All Natural
Machines leave behind emissions and clippings, while chemical treatments leave residues. Our animals leave only healthier soil, trimmed vegetation, and a landscape that’s safer, cleaner, and more sustainable.
Working in Harmony with Nature
Instead of fighting the land, grazing works with it. Our goats and sheep provide the same results as machines or herbicides — but in a way that’s natural, regenerative, and aligned with the long-term health of the environment.
