As Rose says:
“Sometimes I’m just taking the goats to the salad bar!
Every walk is different and with each group or individual it is different. I have folks who come back again and again to experience the seasonal changes around the holding and because every time they get something new from the experience. Often, just being with these curious, inquisitive and funny animals is rewarding enough, a break from the world, and definitely a bit therapeutic however you frame that”
