Hay there! Did you hear? The Paradise Grazing Festival is next weekend!
Get ready for a day of fun for the whole family, hosted by the Butte County Fire Safe Council (BCFSC)!
Meet your Host: The BCFSC is a nonprofit, community-based organization providing wildfire safety services to Butte County since 1998!
When: Saturday, March 25, 2023, from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.
Where: The Terry Ashe Recreation Center at 6626 Skyway, Paradise, CA
Why: Come celebrate some amazing grazing from nature’s firefighters. Learn about how goats can help protect our communities from wildfires by clearing flammable vegetation to create a more fire-safe landscape.
Learn about using grazing for wildfire safety, and then stay for food, vendor booths, live music, tie dye crafts, goat activities, and more!
We’re bringing the G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) goats, just like last year.
Goat Experiences: Petting zoo, goat yoga, goat photobooth, story time with goats, and a dog herding demonstration!
