Before & After photos from happy clients.
Over the last five years, the Spanish goats at Top Brush Intervention have served a wide variety of clients throughout West Michigan. They have cleared virtually every type of terrain and over 400 acres of invasive species. Following is a small sampling of their “work.”
Client A
Client A / Day 1
This 10 acre jungle, with multiple areas needing clearing, was full of bittersweet, autumn olive, Virginia creeper, garlic mustard and poison ivy choking out trees, and making it impossible to enjoy.
The goats quickly got to work, clearing a large section in front of the home. Notice the hanging vines that are stripped of foliage within minutes of the goats entering the fenced in area.
Client A / Day 1, a few hours later
Area in front of home: The goats are already making a huge difference.
Client A / Day 2
Area in front of home: Close up of cleared area, the goats have moved on to the area in the background.
Client A / Day 2, afternoon
Area in front of home: Now that the goats have cleared the front of the fenced in area, they are finishing up another area that was a tangle of vines.
Client A / Success!
Area in front of home: The goats have finished their job in the area in front of the home and are moving on to their next location across the street! What was once an impenetrable mess of invasive vines is now on its way to becoming a beautiful space.
Client A / Side by Side Before & After
Area across the street: The area on the left was handled by the goats and looked identical to the area on the right before the goats worked their magic.
Client A / Side by Side Before & After
Area across the street, farther down the road: Here’s another side by side example, the area on the right was identical to the area on the left until our glutenous goats had their feeding spree.
Client B / Side by Side Before & After
Before (left) and After (right) It’s amazing to see how the goats completely transform a space, uncovering trees and opening space.
Client C / Side by Side Before & After
Before (left) and After (right) This large space was completely transformed with the goats. All done without the use of chemicals, hard labor (on the client’s side) or equipment.
Goats being Goats
Goats love a challenge! The following pictures show a range of actual works in progress over a wide variety of terrains. And, just fun goat photos, because you know, we like to have fun!
