Philly Goat Project is a small program located at the Farm at Awbury in Germantown. PGP has opportunities for individuals to help with barn and landscaping tasks on an ongoing basis. Individual or family volunteers are only accepted with a long term commitment due to the extensive training required. Please view the website ( https://www.phillygoatproject.org/volunteer ) . Young people are encouraged to help out if they are mature and accompanied by a parent, suggest minimum age is 12.
