DON’T LET FALL FOOL YOU!
Reasons why goatscaping is still a good idea, even during the colder fall season
If your grassland was not managed properly during the summer, it could become a wildfire risk in the fall. But, it is not too late to think of ways to prevent fires in your property. Thankfully, goats will be fully capable to help you with this task. The vegetation will most likely remain dry and tall, which will allow goats to continue grazing with ease. So, do not let the slightly colder fall months prevent you from enjoying the many benefits of goatscaping.

So, why wait? The best time to hire goats for goatscaping is always today! Just keep in mind that sporadic rain and colder conditions may slow goats down in the fall, but not considerably. Many of them will not mind taking a shower while they work because after all, they will look pretty sharp and shiny with clean fur!
