RENICK, WV (WVNS) — If you’re looking for a fun outing to spend with family and friends, you should go visit the Friendly Goat Fruit Farm.

Located at 2801 Julia Rd in Renick, WV, 24966, the farm offers a scenic place for the public to enjoy, which includes a large blueberry farm filled with over 3,000 bushes, where families and friends can pick berries, and can also come pet and feed the friendly goats that roam the farm.

Stacey Minear, a local mother, loved bringing her kids to the farm.

“Wonderful place, kids had a lot of fun (even in the heat). We loved all the small touches from the buckets to sit on, the kids treasure chest, and feeding the goats. The berries were so delicious and plentiful.”
