Yes, you can hire goats to clear brush in New Hartford, Connecticut. Hudson Valley Goats deploys a 30-goat working herd for targeted grazing across Litchfield County, with projects starting at $900 and every job quoted after a free site visit.
The math is simple: our full herd clears one acre of moderate brush in about 5 days. A half-acre poison ivy patch is typically a 1 to 2 day job, and an acre of heavy thicket runs around 11 days. The grazing math page publishes the whole duration model, and the interactive calculator will run your exact acreage, density, and terrain.
New Hartford is home base: the herd lives here at our Town Hill Road farm, and our crews have completed multiple projects in town, including season-long trail clearing work. Request a free site visit and we will walk the property with you.
Litchfield County's hill towns grow the invasive species we know best, because we fight them on our own farm:
Japanese Barberry
Litchfield County's signature invasive and a tick reservoir. Goats defoliate it relentlessly
Multiflora Rose
Swallows old pasture across the hills. Goats eat through the thorns
Oriental Bittersweet
Drapes every roadside and hedgerow. Goats strip vines within reach
Poison Ivy
Stone walls and field edges everywhere. Goats are immune and clear it happily
Also on the menu: honeysuckle, phragmites, barberry, wineberry, and mile-a-minute vine. Full list on the services page.
No drive at all. The goats live in New Hartford, which makes local projects the easiest ones on the calendar. We serve the Hudson Valley, Catskills, western Connecticut, and the Berkshires from our farm, and the quote always includes transport, temporary electric fencing, water, and daily herd care. You never pay those as surprise line items.
If your New Hartford project involves heavy woody material or acreage past what a season of grazing can handle, our sister company Hudson Valley Forestry runs the mulchers, and many projects combine both: machine first, goats for maintenance. Municipal or commercial-scale programs run through DeployGoats.
