SERVICES
Northern Herdsman is a naturally sustainable service for vegetation management, situated and active in the Peace Region. Our approach involves the utilization of sheep, which are expertly employed to eradicate unwanted vegetation and seamlessly transition from one site to the next. Sheep grazing stands as an eco-conscious solution to the problems of environmental concerns, cost efficiency, and official regulations.
​
Sheep are the ideal choice for several reasons. They are more versatile grazers than cattle, consuming a wider variety of plants and grazing closer to the ground. Sheep can navigate challenging terrains, such as hills and arid landscapes with ease. Their smaller size makes handling them safer and more efficient, resulting in less soil compaction and lower methane production compared to cattle.
