Breakfast with the Goats and Trees Atlanta!

They're baaaaaaaaack!

After a successful pilot project, Trees Atlanta has decided to bring back the goats for a second year of kudzu munching on one of the BeltLine's new parks, Boulevard Crossing.

A herd of 50 goats from Whistle Pig Farms are coming for a few weeks to eat 1.5 acres of kudzu, an invasive plant hat threatens to take over Atlanta's urban forest.

We hope that this second year of grazing on the same area will diminish the kudzu to the point that a simple spot spraying with herbicide will kill the kudzu for good.

On the morning of Wednesday, Sept. 21, Trees Atlanta invites you to meet the goats with us!
