Livable Buckhead Wants You to "Get Your Goat"

Instead of using weed whackers, lawnmowers, or other industrial equipment, Livable Buckhead has hired out a team of goats to eat their way through the route of a new walking trail, and they want you to sponsor their efforts.

According to Livable Buckhead, 26 goats with names like Fuzzy Bee, Fred Astaire, and Leather Tuscadero will be put to work clearing the route for PATH400, a new trail which will abut Ga. 400. The goats are also providing assistance at Mountain Way Common. A Great Pyrenees dog named Sweet Pea is providing protection for the goats.

Livable Buckhead is allowing people to ”sponsor” each of the goats participating in the clearing work. A $100 donation gets you a thank-you letter with a picture of “your” goat, “Goat Gram” updates provided by Sweet Pea, and an invitation to the “Meet Your Goat” event which will be held in late September.
