Feral Goats regularly graze on the turfed roof of the Coombs old country market store beside the Alberni highway on Vancouver Island, BC. Canada.
Also referred to as a 'green roof', this environmentally friendly method of building provides insulation (retains warmth in colder weather) and promotes evaporation (has a cooling effect in the summer). But most importantly, for us at least, it creates a wonderful habitat for our goats. The Old Country Market in Coombs is also famous for our international foods, imported gifts, in store baked goods, and of ice cream. We also have a restaurant, a deli and fresh produce all under the roofs of our recently renovated market. If this isn't enough, when you have shown the family all there is to offer in the the hill is our fabulous Cuckoo's Trattoria and Pizzeria in the Big Villa at the back, as well as our take-out style Mexican cantina "Taqueria".
