And now to our "NewsHour" Shares, something that caught our eye that might be of interest to you, too.With Christmas season over, one question that gets raised almost every year is what to do with all those trees.As Brian Sullivan of PBS station WGBY in Springfield, Massachusetts reports, one farm has a novel solution.This pile of undecorated Christmas trees serves as a reminder that the holiday season is officially over,which can be a grim prospect for many of us, knowing we still have about three more months of winter ahead.Just don't tell the Nigerian dwarf goats of Hokaheh Farm that.To them, the sound of one of these balsam firs hitting the ground might as well be a dinner bell to a field full of hungry farmhands.Named after a battle cry said to be used by Crazy Horse and his men before the Battle at Little Bighorn, Hokaheh is a hillside farm in the Berkshires.It's owned by a local doctor and home to 19 of these tree-eating goats.Dr. Kerstin Voss bought this 12-acre property in Housatonic back in 2012.But this is the first year since she has been here that they decided to have a Christmas tree drop-off.And as luck would have it, it's a huge hit with the goats.I never knew that goats would eat them until I came here.I posted it on our Facebook page, and it kept getting shared.And next thing I knew, I was getting phone calls and messages from all over the place.And the response has been like overwhelming. We're getting a ton of trees. It's really taken off.While they appear to be going to town on this one-time living room showpiece, a popular misconception is that goats will eat anything.
