ABOUT THE EVENT “GET YER GOAT”- ANNUAL GOAT EDUCATION DAY
Popularly known as “Get Yer Goat”, this annual education day is widely attended by both beginner and experienced goat owners.
If you already own goats you’ve discovered there is still a lot to learn about caring for them. If you are a novice, you’ll learn the basics and
get a chance to network with other goat owners. Beginner and an advanced track of workshops are offered throughout the day.
Topics this year include Goats 101 to cover the basics, breeding, genetics, diseases and metabolic diseases which occur in goats, parasites
and what to do about them, poisonous plants and their effect on animal health.
Or select an optional afternoon class in CHEESEMAKING, a separately priced part of Goat Education Day. It runs from 12:30 to 4 pm. Adults, $50.
This event is a collaborative effort between OSU Extension Small Farms and the Rogue Valley Dairy Goat Association.
