I actually have a few cows of different colours coming to my patch to do the mower. My review of them is that they do the job and so far no residue. Just wonder in the old days there is a buffalo. May be my opening is too small for him or is it her (got horns though). Just to ensure they do not sit down as settle down in front of my house is not a good development for my places.

It is real. I am not joking.

I think your cows might be constipated. ;)

Incidentally I've heard of farmers renting out goats to mow difficult terrain, particularly on steep hills next to roads.

You might like this Gregory Bateson excerpt about the relationship between horses and grass, and how suburbanites pursue mechanical replacements of such relationships: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nW3ovmBjQ9I&feature=youtu.be...

Honestly hoping I never have a lawn, or pull off some forestry / silvopasture living.
