Sam is now successfully herding goats with his pack yak in
a secret location out of state.

I would like to see Other roofless veterans allowed the healing
afforded by tending a grazing animal.

When I attempted to graze on overgrown city plots.

Zoning enforcement was summoned.

Who are these people?

Why would you rather spend money for gas to put in a weed eater

to polute my peace with noise and posionus fumes.

I understand these to be the consequinces of meat eating which dulls the sences and clouds reasoniing.

Give willing single homeless men a calf or goat to tend and graze the city byways with refuge shelters from wind and rain in the Bottoms

coupled with a public toilet and public shower and you might start to
look like a city that cares.

Please do not the gentrification conspiracy win

Very similar to what Bonnie Neely promised after the last Balloon Tract development proposal was nixed.

Hmmm???

Enough fly predator eggs for 1,400 goats is approximately 2,000,000 eggs during fly season. 2,000,000 fly predator would cost $2,000 per year, shipping additional depending on application rate. If additional integrated pest management applications were in use such as chickens and/or peafowl, the fly predators would need to be hatched so that their pupae are not eaten by other insect predators.

This is agriculture. It’s ag land. You can’t decide what is acceptable ag and what is not. PS: Mad River Jam. Tomaso’s, Fish Brothers are NOT FARMERS.

You bought land bordering on ag land. You have no idea about the model that would have been built there.
Flies? Are you for real?
