Goats! Back at Camden Meadow

Meet Edward (sporting the smart black collar) and Evelyn (red). As before, both on loan from our friends at Street Goat, Bristol.

They’ll be with us for a good 6-8 weeks, helping the volunteers at Friends of Camden Meadow to maintain the land in a natural, sustainable way, and reducing the need to use power tools.

Do stop at the railings in front of Camden Crescent and say Hello to them. They’re super friendly, and lots of fun!

Please don’t try to give them any food. Goats have fussier diets than most people think, and some foods are quite bad for them. Plus they’ve got a lot of nettles and bindweed to get through!

Friends of Camden Meadow have a rota system to pop in on the goats each morning to check they’re OK and have water etc. There is room for an extra pair of hands, so if you fancy joining Bath’s very exclusive goatherd team, please contact me at [email protected]. The site is challenging in places, so you’d need to be physically fit. It takes about 30mins. An ability to yodel is not essential.
