Winter Wonderland’s Christmas Trees Creatively Recycled by Thonotosassa Goat Rescue
This past week, rather than turn Christmas trees to mulch, the Clearwater Community Volunteers found a unique way to recycle half of the nearly 100 Christmas trees that decorated the 28th annual Winter Wonderland – the Grady Goat Farm.
- Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL (1888PressRelease) January 19, 2022 - “I was watching the news and saw the Grady Goat Farm was looking for donations of Christmas trees as a treat for the goats,” said Pam Ryan-Anderson, the President of the Clearwater Community Volunteers (CCV). “I called up the farm and learned there was a lot more to what they are doing then just taking care of goats.”
The Grady Goat Farm serves as a goat rescue and utilizes goat yoga and special events to raise money for charitable causes – namely charities that help children facing adversity.
“The Clearwater Community Volunteers is dedicated to helping children and families in need within our community,” said Ms. Ryan-Anderson. “Our purpose is all about helping others, and having fun doing it – and when I heard that the farm uses special events and goat yoga to raise funds to help kids, I really wanted to help the owners of the farm.”
Pam, her husband Joel Anderson (who serves as Winter Wonderland’s Construction Director) and daughter Amanda (who also volunteers with CCV), drove out to the Thonotosassa with the trees.
“The farm is beautiful – there are more than 200 goats, plus cows and donkeys and the owners are just so passionate about what they do – it was inspirational,” said Ms. Ryan-Anderson. “And the goats and cows loved the trees.”
The Grady Goat Farm also supports the Grady Goat Foundation. For more information about the work they do, please visit www.gradygoat.org.
