goats of the future
farming goats in community
We propose a change: farming in community, in a way that enriches land and soil, as well as human health and imagination. We raise dairy goats to live curious, social lives; to express their animal instincts; and to harvest their own nutrition and medicine.
baby goat cuddles
We're opening the barn for baby goat cuddles on April 1st. During spring break (April 1-7), we'll have a full week of daily cuddle sessions and then will be open Fri-Sun through May 12 plus select Wednesday nights open for private bookings.
meet the dreamgoats
Join the herd! Be inducted into goat world via spring baby goat cuddles, summer-fall goat hikes, a holiday hikes + hugs event between Christmas and New Years (bring your xmas tree for recycling!) or a wintry wander, January-February. You can also become an ongoing supporter by becoming a Year of Goats or Year of Soap member, joining our Herdshare, or becoming a volunteer milkmaid/goatherd.
Sign up for our newsletter to keep in touch:
Stubborn, independent, head-butter of children, a good milker (though a bit of a kicker). She was the first goat added to the herd--and a most faithful, resilient pal.
Beau, my sweet old bearded lady is now retired from the milking team. She loves her kids (Camembert, Sylvie, and Georgie) and slow walks back to the barn.
Sneaky, sassy gymnast, climber of trees--and of you! Daughter of sweet Beau.

learn to make soap
Come out to the farm for a workshop on soapmaking! Meet the goats, learn the craft, take home your self-made soap and the skills to make more. We will be releasing more soapmaking dates in spring 2024.
Dream Shop
Adjacent to our goat barn, is our soap studio, where we craft farmstead soap with dream milk, organic oils, and local herbs. Each bar is unique, hand-cut, blended with pure essential oils, and colored with plants. With each seasonal bar, we tell the story of where we live and the plants and scents that surround our woodland dairy and our Michigan home.
