Wright-Locke Farm

Goat Walks are open to the community and there are 10 participants per walk. It is one hour long starting at 11:30am and we walk the goats through the woods with no leash. The Goat Walk Assistant helps with passing out goat snacks to the participants, releasing the goats, answering questions, and other little things to help the walk go smoothly.

We meet at the goat pen about 30 min before the walk begins. Please do not bring anything to feed the goats. Dress for weather, wearing closed-toed shoes, hats and gloves as needed. Walks are subject to cancellation during inclement weather.

This event is for Goat Squad members only.

More Information on Goat Walks:
Goats walks take place in the fields and trails behind the farm on 82 Ridge Street. Volunteers and participants should be ready to hike over steep and off-camber terrain for 30-45 minutes.

Participants will gather in front of the goat pen to learn about the goat’s diet, behavior, jobs on the farm, and their overall health. The group will then head out on the walk with our 5 goats. Just like the goats, the group will stay together as a herd as the goats graze on what is left for greenery this time of year. If the goats are lucky, they might find a few acorns that the squirrels missed. The group will help guide the goats on the walk, and are encouraged to pet the goats and take pictures with them.
