Goats Help Combat Invasive Species in Mequon

The Ozaukee Washington Land Trust and the Mequon-Thiensville Sunrise Rotary Club helped bring a herd of goats to Mequon to help maintain the parks and eliminate invasive plant species around the county.

Mequon began goat landscaping back in June 2020 in the Pukaite Woods. For the last couple summers, the goats visit the woods and graze on the land, removing invasive honeysuckle and buckthorn.
