THEY’RE BAAAAACK! ComEd’s brush-munching goats are taking a victory lap at Pioneer Court after another year of keeping power lines clear and reliability high. Since 2019, this hardworking herd has helped prevent outages by clearing overgrown vegetation in rocky, steep, hard-to-reach areas across northern Illinois, including a big push this season at Matthiessen State Park. Meet the goats for photos, video, and plenty of bleats on Tuesday, Sept. 16 from 11AM – 2PM on Pioneer Court! 🐐 @comed
