In a delightful fusion of fitness and fun, Wabash Feed & Garden recently hosted a successful goat yoga event that drew enthusiastic crowds. This beloved Heights institution, which has been a community staple since 1906, transformed its North Shepherd Drive location into a vibrant hub for wellness and amusement.
The unique yoga class, which quickly sold out its initial session, saw such high demand that a second session was promptly scheduled. The event was orchestrated by Wabash employee and yoga instructor Heidi Lehto, who guided participants through their poses while Debbie Girtman, another Wabash staff member and animal enthusiast, provided the charming goats for the session. Together, they cultivated a warm, family-friendly environment that appealed to both seasoned practitioners and newcomers alike.
Goat yoga, a trend gaining traction across the nation, adds an engaging twist to traditional yoga practice. Participants enjoyed the playful presence of goats, whose natural curiosity and friendly interactions brought an extra layer of enjoyment to the session. The playful antics of the goats contributed to a memorable experience, blending physical exercise with a dose of spontaneous fun.
Wabash Feed & Garden, renowned for its deep-rooted connection to the community and commitment to preserving traditional values, offers more than just feed and gardening supplies. Its expanded range includes holistic pet treatments, natural pet foods, bird feeders, and a variety of rustic home décor. The store stands out as a unique destination in Houston, providing a diverse selection of products and services under one roof.
The recent goat yoga event aligns with Wabash’s ongoing efforts to engage the community through innovative and enjoyable activities. Previous August events included a social media gift card raffle and a plumeria sale. Looking ahead, Wabash plans to continue its community-centric approach with additional goat yoga sessions and a Fall Family Day featuring crafts and other activities for children. Details for these upcoming events will be announced soon.
