Getting Old Forest School ready for a new season of events is no small task—it takes a dedicated team and a lot of care. To lend a hand with essential lawn maintenance, we’ve welcomed some very special new team members! Introducing our three feathery friends: a small gaggle of Pilgrim Geese named Martha, Gertie, and George. With two lovely ladies and one charming lad, this trio has already become an integral part of the grounds.
Pilgrim Geese are known for their friendly, gentle nature and quiet disposition, making them a perfect fit for the peaceful ambiance of Old Forest School. Their natural foraging instincts are a huge help—they graze on dandelions, weeds, and grass, effectively keeping the lawns neatly trimmed while also fertilizing the pasture. Martha, Gertie, and George are not only excellent lawn keepers but also add a touch of charm and character to the grounds, making each stroll through the property even more delightful.
Their curiosity and strong awareness of their surroundings bring a lovely liveliness to Old Forest School, as they wander the grounds with their keen vision and inquisitive personalities. These little helpers make a wonderful addition, blending practicality with personality and adding to the unique experience our guests enjoy. We’re thrilled to have Martha, Gertie, and George as part of the Old Forest School family, helping us maintain the beauty of the venue with their quiet grace and natural charm.
