Newburg, WI – It could be the new Netflix series, ‘Goats on an island in Newburg.’
It’s a true story. You can drive down Main Street in Newburg, turn into Newburg Fireman’s Park and as you’re going down the driveway look east.
Yup, that’s really a goat in the tree and 139 of his friends on a little patch of land in the middle of the Milwaukee River.
