Remember when we talked about an interesting form of landscaping over at Stringers Ridge? Let's goat back to it because these adorable landscapers are currently working hard over at the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park in Fort Olgethorpe, GA.

If you journey to Snodgrass Hill, you will see 65 goats (and soon to be up to 150+) chomping away at invasive species in a ~10-acre area. Clearing the Himalayan blackberry, multi-flora rose, bush honeysuckle, and privet that has taken over the grounds will allow for native species, like coralberry, to flourish again.

Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park Museum Curator Abbey Vander Sluis said the park chose to utilize goats as a more eco-friendly + historically accurate alternative than using the prescribed burn or herbicide methods.

Vander Sluis added that when goats eat, they're stripping the nutrients from the plants and seeds, making it no longer viable to regrow, similarly to how a fire burns something.

Similar to the Chattanooga Parks and Outdoors Department, the park contracted Knox Goats for this project. Knox Goats owner Keith Bridges said that this is the company's first job over state lines + that once all goats are on site, they will be clearing 1.2 acres a day.

The park has signed on for a four-year contract to use this method of landscaping on several parts of its grounds to restore it back to its historical nature.

"The idea is that we want to have the view that would have been from up top, down below to watch how the troops would have stormed up during battle," said Vander Sluis.

The project has totaled $47,510 so far, with future funds to be obligated towards it as needs are determined.
