? Don't throw it away! Freecycle it!
This is a very friendly group, and we help each other, the environment (no, I am not a tree-hugger :) ) and the landfill workers!


I have had lots of people email me to find out how I trained him. The directions are here. There are also links on that page(and in the table above) to figure out how to harness a goat and what kind of vehicle to get. I have found a source locally, in Seymour, TN. My wagon in the picture comes from Hoegger Goat Supply. They are really great people to work with. The wagon was actually made here in Virginia, by a Harrisonburg man....
Here are some pictures of my landscaping work.This is a picture of our house in Summer 2000, just after we had 14 large trees cut down. The yard had very little done to it since 1946, because my mother-in-law liked the "natural" look. In September 2003, Hurricane Isabel came along and took out two more trees, leaving me with a nice garden space in the uphill side yard. (When I say large, I mean minimum 125-150 ft height- we lived in one of the oldest original "subdivisions" in Petersburg. The house was built by my father in law in 1942-46. What looks like dirt under the tree is cedar mulch. This was taken during one of the worst droughts this area had seen in 150 years. Yes, we irrigate,rarely (never used it during summer 2004). Soaker hoses, discretely placed and a sprinkler system underground with Organic methods of pest control are used. We did all the work ourselves, except cutting the trees. All design, installation and mainenance is ours. My husband did the trenching for the irrigation system, I did the design, and we both installed it. He did the electrical connections, and I built the walls.
This house sold 3 weeks after we put it on the market, for a nice price...See also the site 1667 Varina Ave, a landscaping adventure.
