As part of the goal to reduce my business’s impact on the environment, this past summer I started a program working with goat owners in the greater Seattle area. When I’m working nearby someone that has goats and I have tree trimmings that goats like (there are only a handful of species they can’t eat), I drop them off for the goats. This reduces the amount of green waste getting trucked around (which equals fewer CO2 emissions) while at the same time providing the goats with some fresh local greenery. All helping to close a few loops in our food system.
