This chapter lays the foundation for successful goose ownership. You will gain a deep understanding of geese as domestic and farm animals, explore their long history alongside humans, weigh the real benefits and challenges of keeping geese, and finally determine whether goose ownership is the right choice for your lifestyle, land, and goals.
