On August 21, we welcomed Green Goats and two of the finest in their herd to Wakeman Town Farm.
The goats’ grazing will help sustainably maintain Town land surrounding a retention pond south of the Farm and will permanently remove invasive plant species, maintain a natural habitat for wildlife, and beautify the area: all without the roar of a lawnmower or the spray of a chemical. They should also make for some fun “goat spotting” along Wakeman Drive!
You can stop by the Farm during visitor hours or take a walk down Wakeman Drive next to the Farm to see if you can spot the landscaping goats. They will be working the area until the end of the growing season this fall.
Just remember for their health and yours, please do not feed or pet the goats!
