So you have a lot of extra brush and foliage on your property, and you don’t really have the time to take a weed whacker to it. What are you going to do? You call Rent-a-Ruminant.
This ingenious service sees a landowner renting a small herd of goats for a period of time, so that goats can eat all the spare brush and foliage that is getting in the way. Rent-a-Ruminant is an environmentally sound operation, as they only use goats to clear away invasive plants.
