Biological Control: Invasive Species Land Reclamation and Management

A complimentary demonstration project/management program using high quality South African Boer goats to manage many of the worst invasive species in the Shenandoah on pasture, woodlands and even idle commercial property.  Simultaneously, this project will also encourage the development of meat goat farming operations in the Valley utilizing invasive species as their primary forage base.
