Colorado Springs, Colo. (KKTV) – The El Paso County Jail partnered up with local rancher B3C Show Goats to help clear invasive weeds on the property.
According to the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office, more than 40 goats started clearing about three acres of the invasive weeds around the jail last week. This natural land management method provides effective weed control, enriches the soil, and offers a cost-saving alternative to traditional vegetation management.
As part of our commitment to protecting the community and responsibly managing county resources, we are always exploring creative, effective solutions that improve public safety and operational efficiency… This collaborative effort reflects how innovative partnerships can produce meaningful results for both residents and taxpayers.
Over the next two weeks, community members are welcome to come visit the goats and see the crew in action during visiting hours from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Parking is available at the El Paso County Jail Visitor Center, 2727 E. Las Vegas St., Colorado Springs, CO 80906.
