AN ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT-BUFFET in RIVERSIDE PARK
Goats Luncheon | Michael Robb 2022
Since 2019, Riverside Park Conservancy has brought a herd of goats to the Bird Sanctuary, to create Goatham – a hard-to-access area in the northern part of the Park. The goats take up residency for the summer on sloped terrain that is rife with invasive plants. Since goats are naturally effective weed whackers, putting them to work in Goatham is like treating them to an all-you-can-eat buffet. It’s hearty for the goats and good for the environment. We welcome the goats back, they will be hosted at the park through early September.
