The Riverside Park Conservancy announced that seven goats from Green Goats in Rhinebeck, NY, will arrive on the West Side of Manhattan on Friday, July 19, postponed from the 12th due to inclement weather. For the past four years, the goats have been deployed in a Morningside Heights section of Riverside Park near West 120th Street. This year, they’ll be stationed further uptown at West 143rd Street. Their mission is the same: munching on poison ivy and invasive species. For details click — HERE.
