Earn a comfortable full-time income on part-time hours, working outdoors with goats in one of Australia's most beautiful regions.

Established 2021. FY revenue ~$161,000 on operating expenses of just ~$6,400 (excluding vehicle and owner's compensation).

Rainbow Goats uses a herd of approximately 100 goats as all-terrain "lawnmowers," moved between client properties inside portable electric netting to graze down unwanted vegetation, control invasive weeds and reduce bushfire fuel loads. Cheaper than machinery, safer than herbicides, and the goats leave behind fertilised soil rather than emissions or chemical residue.

Operating across the Northern Rivers, the business has grown into a well-known local brand with back-to-back bookings year after year, including repeat contracts with the Rural Fire Service and property developers. Minimum job size 8 acres keeps the work efficient and margins strong.

A genuine lifestyle business. Typical workload is 10 to 20 hours per week: the herder sets up netting and moves the goats to a fresh section every few days. No need to own acreage, as the herd lives on client properties and rotates between jobs. Flexible enough to run alongside other employment, a side business, or part-time study.

The business has been deliberately kept small, but demand across the Northern Rivers is massive. The region has more than enough work to keep several herds busy simultaneously, and this is reflected in a long-standing waitlist. A growth-minded buyer could scale rapidly by splitting into multiple herds, and a business-minded operator could take it further still by franchising the model across other regions of Australia.

Settlement includes a detailed Standard Operating Procedure manual covering herd management, fencing setup, client onboarding and seasonal care, plus a current list of warm enquiries. Hands-on training and handover period included.

Ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, regenerative-agriculture advocates, or sea-changers wanting an established business with proven demand and meaningful environmental impact. Confidentiality agreement required before release of full financials.

Asking $185,000 + SAV (Stock At Valuation) + vehicle
