Agritourism and ag-education are a major component of what we do!
Check out our on-farm classes or bring the animals to you with a custom petting zoo or event.
We offer several on-farm hands-on classes every year. No prior experience is necessary!
Kidding season is the most exciting but most stressful time of year. Targeted towards new or aspiring goat owners (but open to everyone!), these classes will coincide with induced deliveries of several dairy goats in the herd. We'll cover basic pregnant doe care, kidding kit supplies, and more; and then get hands on with delivery and post-natal care as the does deliver.

2025 workshops are starting to be finalized! Registration links will come soon.
Confirmed: Feb 1 & 2
Tentative: Feb 15 & 22
Our dairying classes give participants a chance to hand-milk goats, learn about care of milking does, and then take that milk to create soft cheeses, yogurt, butter, and soap. Attendees leave with samples, plus a gallon of milk and cultures to create their own delicacies.

Raising goats, whether for pleasure or profit, is extremely rewarding but also challenging. Learn the basics of goat nutrition, housing, and maintenance, including hands-on skills like trimming hooves, giving shots, evaluating body condition and parasite load, and more. This event will be a combination lecture/formal learning and hands-on practice.
