In the Fry’s Spring Forest Restoration Project, goats were used to clear the ground and to free mature trees of invasive vines. This made it possible to plant 75 new tree seedlings in the cleared area. Ongoing maintenance will be necessary for some years to ensure the continued suppression of invasive species. Treatments used (goats vs forestry mulcher) depend on terrain, presence of water, and presence of the public. For example, Fry’s Spring had an extreme slope with a perennial stream at the bottom of the slope. The terrain did not allow for heavy machinery and erosion of the slope was a serious consideration. In this instance, goats were a preferable treatment choice.
