The chicks arrived almost two weeks ago, and they are happily eating grass and grain. As we move the tractor across the field, the chicks eat down the plant life. We then sow annual alfalfas, clovers, and millets for goats to eat in July. The chicks have survived a lot of rainy and cold weather. Stay tuned as we continue remediation of the field.
While Root Riot Community Garden has undergone a significant renovation, GlennArt is working on the pasture portion of the property. This process clears parasite in the grasses as well as allows us to plant other cover crop species that have higher nutrition value for the goats.

Mars the tractor is located at 451 N Waller. It is seen from the street. The pricing is for baby goat chills within the fenced field. People walking by can view both.
