Annual Cleanup
The city of Moriarty will hold its annual Moriarty Cleanup today through Sunday.

The city will help residents and businesses to dispose of unwanted and accumulated items by providing rolloff trash containers for free use. The events are also an effort to provide residents and businesses with more information on the city's new nuisance ordinance, which the city will begin enforcing this spring.

South Mountain
Dairy Offers Tours
South Mountain Dairy north of Edgewood has begun its "kidding season" and is offering tours on Saturdays through May 19.
The tours run from 2 to 4 p.m. at the dairy at 48 Katzima.
Kidding began in late March, and the dairy now has between 40 and 60 kids, or baby goats. By April 28 the number is expected to be 60 to 80 babies.
Visitors will be able to pet the goats, and for $1 buy a small bottle of milk to feed a baby goat or a treat bag to feed the adults. Dairy personnel will explain how cheese is made and show the milking parlor. Cheese, yogurt and milk will be available to purchase.
Visitors are advised to dress appropriately, as South Mountain Dairy is at an elevation of 7,200 feet and the wind is often blowing. A jacket and sunscreen are advised, and visitors should wear clothes and shoes that can get a little dirty.
