Urban sheep mow city parks



Photo of some distinctively un-urban sheep at Womerlippi Farm last winter.


I've reported before on the outbreak of cost-cutting urban sheep in Europe. Here's another article. I do fully plan to find a way to integrate sheep-mowing back into our college land management system. It just makes sense, fiscally and in terms of climate emissions.

I also find sheep very calming and relaxing to observe. I expect others do too. There's nothing quite like a sheep chewing her cud for the picture of relaxation.
