Have you ever bottle fed a baby goat?! Don’t miss this adorable and memorable experience with Growing Gardens and our herd. We practice regenerative urban agriculture on our farms, and the goat herd has a positive impact on soil health and farm ecology and reduces our need to bring compost onto the farm. The herd enjoys grazing on cover crops, which decreases our labor and fossil fuel inputs, and supports our goals for managing the land holistically. Join our herd and a staff member for a tour of Growing Gardens Goat Dairy and a bottle feeding with our goat kids!
