Families are invited to join us THIS SATURDAY MORN for a slice of farm life right here in Brooklyn by meeting a Goat!
Your kids will get to meet a friendly goat just outside of Greenpoint Library -- followed by a casual PJ Library picnic (potluck style) in nearby McCarren Park. Your kids will also learn about the unique "Green Goats" project.
Green Goats is based in Rhinebeck, NY. They send their goats into city parks, to eat and eliminate invasive species through defoliation. It turns out that this is good for the goats, good for the environment, and good for the parks!
After meeting the goats from 11am - 11:45am, we'll walk on over (5 min) to McCcaren Park for a picnic and nearby playground time :)
