Kick off the first day of summer by helping Jamey Donaldson herd 34 goats from Carvers Gap to Jane Bald at part of the Baa-tany project. The Baa-tany Goat Project is a stewardship initiative to manage and restore grassy balds in the western Highlands of Roan Mountain.
Volunteers make the Baa-tany Goat Project a success each year. This year's herding event will occur on June 20th. If interested in participating, please RSVP with Rich Preyer at rich@appalachian.org or by calling 828-253-0095 ext. 205. Please bring hiking shoes, lunch, water, jacket/rain gear, camera, and warm clothes.
