Ellen M
"I love knowing I am going to see them each week. Regardless of if I am tired or stressed, it has to happen, and is a welcome routine."
Malory M
"Milking is the mental and emotional rejuvenation I need to get me through the rest of the week."
Molly V
"I've talked and thought a lot about animal ethics in the past year, and I think that working with animals is one of the best ways in which to truly understand that relationship."
Barter
for Milk
Give one, two-hour shift a week for a quart of creamy dream milk (or bar of soap) between May & Dec. Meet new people and get to know the seasonal life of the herd.
Make Soap & Cheese
Take part in cheesemaking or soapmaking! Learn a new craft, and take home a handful of handmade soap or cheese.
Gain Farming
Experience
Learn the inner-workings of small-scale woodland goat dairy. We invite you to learn and participate in all aspects of production.
Hang out with the Herd
Enjoy getting to know each quirky momma on the milking stand. Be the first to bond with the floppy-eared kids. Acceptance by the herd is the true reward.
