SF’s Goats Chow Down Your Leftover Christmas Tree

Local Goats “Pine” “Fir” Post Holiday Feast

Instead of leaving your old Xmas tree out on the curb, or burned on the beach, bring them to a place where they’ll be devoured by goats, the adorable garbage disposals of the animal kingdom.

City Grazing, a company that specializes in bringing goats to small properties to clear brush and weeds for fire prevention, is partnering with the San Francisco Fire Department for their second annual Christmas Tree Recycling Program.

Apparently, Christmas trees are like cat-nip for the goats, who get vitamins, minerals, and natural intestinal worm prevention from munching on the unchanging leaves of holiday greenery.

Before you drop off your tree, it must be clean, with no decorations, tinsel, lights, or fake snow. No one wants to see the half digested remains of “Baby’s First Ornament” in a pile of goat droppings.

ALL DONE FOR 2016 – Donate Your Christmas Trees to SF’s Goats
Where: City Grazing, 100 Cargo Way (Near Cargo & Jennings), SF
Drop Off :Sat & Sun, January 9-10 from Noon to 4pm, or Wednesday Evenings January 6, 13 from 4pm to 6pm

> No more! So many awesome people donated their xmas trees, that the 80 goats at City Grazing are tired of eating trees! You would be too! If you want to hire the goats to come to your yard and graze (just no xmas trees, please) – contact City Grazing and hire some hard working four-legged weed eaters.

Look for signs for San Francisco Bay Rail, Waste Solutions Group, and City Grazing on the gates. The goat yard is across the gravel lot just to the right as you come in the gates. Please park in front of the goat mural.

Too many trees! Sorry to say, the goats are full of xmas and refusing any more! Thanks to all of you who brought trees…
