The goats arrived at our trial grazing site on the whin grassland last week in glorious sunshine. Maisie, George, Ollie and Thistle have a shelter there ready for when the weather changes which I am sure they have much appreciated over the last few days!

Once they decided to come out of the trailer it was time for a quick assessment of where they were

before getting stuck in to some tasty brambles. They will stay on site until xmas when they will have a break and if all goes to plan return next spring. The idea is that over time they will remove keep down the amount of scrub that is spreading over the grassland.
