Land Management at Scale
From urban park systems to remote tribal watersheds, we bring precision, experience, and a thousand-plus goats to the land management challenges that matter most. Let's talk about what we can do at your scale.
Public and tribal lands face a different kind of challenge than private lands: The scale is bigger, the bureaucratic timelines are longer, and the ecological stakes are higher. Restoring a county park, a tribal watershed, or a federal wildlife management area requires not just effective tools—it requires partners who understand how to operate efficiently and responsibly at scale.
That's exactly where we thrive.

We've spent over a decade working alongside local municipalities, city and county park systems, state and federal agencies, tribal governments, and conservation nonprofits. From tight urban greenways in Minneapolis to wild, rugged bluff country in the Driftless, we know how to deploy our herds precisely.
Prescribed goat grazing is especially well-suited to public lands. Our herds can access terrain that machinery can't reach and cover ground that would require dozens of hours of hand labor. We manage the fencing, the logistics, and the animal welfare, so your team can focus on the bigger picture.

Whether you're managing a one-acre urban natural area or a thousand-acre restoration project, we can scale our operation to fit your site and your goals.

Watch how prescribed goat grazing transforms invaded landscapes
This video features an animated explanation of how goats deplete invasive plants' root reserves through repeated browsing, plus real footage from Minneapolis Park Board's Eloise Butler Flower Garden showing side-by-side comparisons of ungrazed areas choked with buckthorn versus lands grazed multiple seasons where native plants are returning and light reaches the forest floor again.
