Here at The Natural Gardener, we have Chico and Kiko the miniature donkeys, many chickens of all types and ages, Buddy the dog and of course the famous or infamous Guano our black attack cat (dogs beware). Of course, trying to be a sustainable business, all of our animals work. The donkeys provide mowing and wonderful manure compost for the grounds, the chickens make eggs and compost, Guano patrols for mice, and Buddy... well, we are not sure what his function is yet, except to lie right in the middle of the floor.

Our officemates include a parrot and budgie, so we can whistle while we work.
