TCR's Allora project in Raleigh, North Carolina is not yet complete, but the team recently welcomed new guests — a herd of landscaping goats provided by North Carolina-based and female-owned business The Goat Squad! Letting goats do what goats do best is an environmentally friendly solution to an intractable problem: the invasive and fast-growing kudzu plant. Left unattended, kudzu can take over the landscape in an area, outcompeting grass, shrubs, and even trees. In just 20 weeks, the goats eliminate kudzu from a property and prevent its regrowth in a way mowing cannot. After the process is completed, the 20-acre Allora development site will boast improved visibility and an enhanced entrance thanks to the help of The Goat Squad. Check out the photos from the site below. CHD’s Emily White and the whole team – humans and herd, alike – look forward to delivering the newest Allora property in the region in the coming months.
Love this. I've heard of ppl doing it but never seen it in action.
