Want overgrown weeds, vines and brush gone without spraying? Targeted grazing with goats is a time-tested way to control vegetation. They eat the leaves and tender growth of weeds and invasive plants, and they work on ground where mowers and sprayers can’t go.

Why choose goats over herbicide

• No spraying: nothing to drift onto gardens, creeks or neighbors’ yards.

• Safe around people and pets: a good fit for schools, parks, playgrounds and family yards.

• Gentle on the ground: no heavy machines compacting soil or tearing up roots.

• Built-in fun: kids, neighbors and students love meeting the herd.

What goats eat (and what they don’t)

Goats happily clear English ivy, kudzu, privet, honeysuckle, briars and poison ivy. They leave woody trunks behind, and some ornamental plants are toxic to them. See our plants toxic to goats guide. Our landscapers handle anything the goats shouldn’t or won’t.

Who uses chemical-free clearing

• Homeowners with kids, pets, gardens or creeks.

• Schools and churches that want a safe, educational option.

• Parks and cities managing invasive plants on public land. See municipal goat grazing.

• HOAs with shared spaces. See HOA common area clearing.

What it costs

• Residential: most jobs run $800–1,500.

• Commercial and municipal: most run $1,200–3,000.

Make it a membership

Prefer to spread the cost out? Our maintenance memberships turn your clearing into easy monthly payments with scheduled return visits, so regrowth never gets ahead of you. Prefer a one-time clear followed by mulch? We do that too, and we’ll tell you which fits your property.
