Going green with goats
By Clare Jensen
Don Miller’s goat of a business is quickly approaching its first birthday. What started out with a modest purchase of 15 bramble-eating farm animals last July has morphed into a full-on goatfest.
Miller, who employs 180 goats, three border collies, two Great Pyrenees, one sheep and two humans, has made it his mission to clear unwanted vegetation in an environmentally friendly way.
