Consider donating your Christmas tree to some hungry York County goats

Not only do goats love Christmas trees, but they're also healthy for them!

YORK COUNTY, Pa. — For those who still have their Christmas tree, think about disposing of it in a cute and environmentally friendly way! 

Rachel Gross is accepting real trees for her Nigerian Dwarf goats at her family farm in Lower Windsor Township, York County. She says that not only do her goats, named Finley, Goofy and Hennessey, love the fresh trees, but they're also good for them! 

"[The Christmas trees] are like a natural dewormer. They'll eat the needles off, then strip the bark down and it's just an easy way to give them something different to eat that's good for them," she told FOX43. 

Gross is welcoming anyone ready to part with their real Christmas tree to bring it to her farm; before donating, make sure the tree has no tinsel or fake snow. 

For those interested in donating their tree, email Gross at rachelrenee2105@gmail.com or give her a call at 717-479-0883.
