We do our Christmas Tree Drop-off for the Goats as a Fundraiser for a local Charity. This year’s charity is voted on by participants. Our One-day only has already occurred on 1/7/23, please no additional dropoffs are being accepts.
UPDATE 1/7/23: Words can’t express how appreciative we are for the community support at our 5th Annual Christmas Tree Dropoff: Goats & Live Music
Fundraiser this morning! We raised $1,834. Based on the Money Wars (attendees put change into Jars for the Top 2 of 30 voted on charities during signups) so we decided to split the donations as follows: 28% ($513.52) to MSPCA at Nevins Farm & 72% ($1,320.48) to Sweet Paws Rescue. Additionally the Georgetown High School Class of 2025 raised $160 selling whooping pies and hot cocoa at today’s event! We look forward to a happy and healthy 2023!
2024 Dates: January 6th – One Day Only! Advanced Sign-up Required. Suggested Donation; $20+ per Family/Tree
