Garrison's steep, rocky Hudson Highlands terrain is where goats beat machines outright. The usual targets:

Carpets the Highlands understory. Goats work slopes no mower can hold
Oriental Bittersweet
Smothers the wood edges above the river. Goats strip everything in reach
Multiflora Rose
Thorn walls on old estate grounds. Goats graze straight through
Poison Ivy
Thrives on the rocky slopes. Goats are immune and eat it first
Also on the menu: honeysuckle, phragmites, barberry, wineberry, and mile-a-minute vine. Full list on the services page.
