Saddler's Woods Conservation Association (SWCA) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to education, restoration, and research of Saddler's Woods, a 25 acre urban forest located in Haddon Township, New Jersey.
Operation Goat Much
4/19 -5/11
Our favorite volunteers are back and we expect them to be on site through May 11th. If you would like to drop by and cheer them on their munching mission, you will find them in various locations in the upland portion of the woods. Please do not feed or pet the goats and please keep dogs on a leash and away from the goats as sometimes it can spook or stress them. No unauthorized personnel can enter the fenced zone. If you are interested in volunteering to help with keeping buckets full of clean water, checking on the goats, and ensuring the public follows rules, please email janet@saddlerswoods.org and we can train you and get you on the schedule! Can’t volunteer? Money helps too! Please consider a donation to help us fund the project and our overall habitat restoration initiatives.
