Summary Of Nature's Weed Weed Eater
Response Essay The article that I chose to write about was called, “Nature’s Weed Eater’s.” This article was about a lady named Elaine who was looking at a newspaper and seen an ad about using goats to manage rough areas. At the time, Elaine had two children ages six and eight, a husband who traveled for work, and a full time job of her own. However, when she seen the ad, she instantly wanted to put her four goats to work. She called the number in the newspaper ad and instantly put her goats to work at a local golf course. Before Elaine took off with her goats, she weighed the pros and cons with her husband and he reminded her that she had a full time job and that he traveled for work. Elaine was so determined to do this that she loaded her four goats up in her Toyota Highlander and took off to the golf course. After being in the Goatscaping business for a couple of years, Elaine now has fifty seven goats and …show more content…
The first quote that I want to talk about is where she states, “I was a wannabe farmer with no land and only four goats that I kept at Colchester Neighborhood Farm in Plympton, where I had a CSA vegetable share.” I chose this quote because I think that it really shows that Elaine had never thought about using her goats to clear rough areas until the ad in the newspaper caught her eye. I think that this really shows that the sky is the limit for anything that a person wants to do. The second quote that I picked to really show Elaine’s dedication to her goats is how she stated, “I loaded my four goats in the back of my Toyota Highlander and put my solar-battery fence charger and electric net fence in the backseat-and just like that, I was in business!” The reason that I chose this quote is because I think that it shows how dedicated Elaine was to get her goats started. Also, instead of hauling them in a trailer, she just put them in the back of her SUV and off she
