Hudson Valley Goats provides professional targeted grazing services across the Northeast since 2019.
When clients needed vegetation management solutions that mechanical equipment couldn't handle—sensitive solar installations, underground pipeline infrastructure, steep utility corridors—we developed our targeted grazing program as the natural complement to our forestry services.
Targeted grazing isn't just "eco-friendly"—it's the most effective vegetation management solution for sites where mechanical and chemical methods fail or create liability.
Unlike mowers and excavators, goats can't damage underground pipelines, solar cables, or utility infrastructure. No risk of equipment strikes.
Herbicides contaminate soil and groundwater. Goats convert vegetation to natural fertilizer. Critical for watershed and sensitive site compliance.
Steep slopes, wetlands, rocky terrain—goats navigate terrain that's impassable or dangerous for mechanical equipment and crews.
Goats eat plants to the root crown, preventing regrowth. Annual grazing programs deliver better long-term control than repeated mowing.
Detailed before/after photography, acreage reports, and carbon impact estimates for sustainability reporting and investor presentations.
Goats generate positive press and community goodwill—a welcome change from the noise complaints and traffic of traditional clearing operations.
