These Local Farms Are Accepting Christmas Trees For Goats To Eat
FAIRHAVEN (CBS) -- Ready to take down the Christmas tree? Why not give it to the goats?
Several local farms in Massachusetts are encouraging people to drop off their old Christmas trees, which their goats and other animals love to snack on.
Make sure to remove any ornaments, garland or tinsel from the tree first. Trees must not have been sprayed with any chemicals, like fire retardant or pesticides, in order to be safe for the goats to eat.
