The Bell-Ringer
A herd of Angora and Milk goats graze on the Roan Mountain Highlands near the Appalachian Trail which runs along the Tennessee / North Carolina border.
The goats spend the winter in Shady Valley and the summer on the mountain balds at 5700’-5800’ in elevation as part of the Baa-tany Goat project. The 10-year project began in 2008 in an attempt to restore the Grassy and Alder Balds using goats as an experimental management tool.
