What is the Gaggleville porch goose?<\/h2>\r\nA porch goose<\/a> is exactly what it sounds like. It's a plastic, goose-shaped yard decoration that perches in your garden or on your porch. He looks very cute as-is, but the best part is the variety of outfits you can buy around different seasons and themes. From a quirky Christmas tree to a buzzing bumblebee, there is a goose outfit for every occasion.\r\n

How We Tested It<\/h2>\r\n\"Porch\r\n\r\nI'll admit: When the porch goose trend first hit my TikTok \"For You Page,\" I was sold. I love animals. And in seasonal outfits<\/em>? Perfection.\r\n\r\nI've had my goose since May 2023. When it arrived, I was impressed by the substantial size. It stands about 2 feet high and 15 inches wide. I started by filling the base with sand. There's a black stopper on the bottom that allows you to pour in weights. After many months of migrating around the yard (and even moving to a new house!), I've noticed no leaks.\r\n\r\nAfter a summer of standing \"naked\" in the garden, it was time to get my goose some clothes. The outfits are, by far, the best part. And there are so many clever options to choose from!\r\n

Porch Goose Outfits<\/h3>\r\n\"Porch\r\n\r\nIn spring, dress up your fowl friend as a butterfly<\/a> or Easter egg<\/a>. In summer, bust out the watermelon slice<\/a> and Uncle Sam<\/a> outfit. And in the fall? Your goose can dress incognito as a witch<\/a> or candy corn<\/a>.\r\n\r\nLast, but certainly not least, the Christmas season provides plenty of festive outfit opportunities. Your goose can welcome winter as a snowman<\/a> or ugly Christmas sweater contestant<\/a>.\u00a0Don we now our gay apparel, indeed!\r\n\r\nRest assured that this is just a small sample of the outfits you can buy. There are also plenty of evergreen options for switching it up in between holidays. You can shop the entire Gaggleville collection at Miles Kimball<\/a>, with select outfit options also available on Amazon<\/a>.\r\n\r\nI currently own five outfits\u2014Santa<\/a>, Thanksgiving turkey<\/a>, Halloween jack o'lantern<\/a>, summer strawberry<\/a> and sunshine<\/a>\u2014with every intention of buying more. So far, I'm very impressed with the quality. Each piece is made of a high-quality felt with beautiful colors and details. Most of the outfits also include a headpiece or hat for a final touch.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nKeep in mind that while your porch goose is intended for outdoor use, the outfits should remain covered. They are not waterproof and will deteriorate if exposed to rain or snow.\r\n
