Gone with the Goats

Description

Despite its title, this is not a book about a feisty Southern belle trying to save her goat farm in the wake of the Civil War. Instead, it’s the story of an ordinary 21st century woman, with more imagination than common sense, trying to get rid of her backyard weeds in the most environmentally friendly way possible.As my story unfolds, you’ll see why a suburban girl like me decided to get goats in the first place, and how, after reading numerous books about raising goats, I decided to experiment with time-, labor-, and money-saving schemes that sometimes worked and sometimes didn’t. My goal with this book is to entertain, and to encourage those who might have the land and the desire, to take the steps toward owning goats, while avoiding my mistakes and perhaps making use of my flashes of inspiration. 17,000 words.
