Tucked in a sunny corner

of the ranch, the coop

shelters 20 chickens that

provide eggs almost daily.

“When we got the place, I could have

called it Camp Poison Oak,” says Guy.

Instead of eradicating the plants with

chemicals, he invested in natural weed

killers: goats! He nicknamed the herd

Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.

Guy and his caretakers dote

on the garden, which has about

30 fruit trees, plus herbs and

veggies, like artichokes, carrots

and jalapeños. “The first time we

grew an avocado, it was like we

had a baby!” Guy says.
