Visit our peaceful, natural, and unique farm setting! Spend time meeting our menagerie of critters as you make your way through the farm to our baby goats! Put life on pause as you enjoy an hour and a half of tranquility in a secluded area on our farm while cuddling cute baby goats! After some initial cuddle time, we’ll introduce you to the rest of the herd. You can even take the goats on a forage in the woods while walking a peaceful nature trail, if you’d like! Other things to note Larger groups may be accommodated upon request. The Goatie Cuddle experience is best when tailored to smaller, more intimate (rather than mixed) groups.

In an hour-long experience, visitors will meet and play with this year's babies. These babies are bonded to humans and will climb all over you. Near the end of the hour, visitors are welcome to visit the rest of the goats and I'll be happy to answer any questions they might have about goat life. (Don't see a date that works for you? Drop me a message and let's see if we can't make another day work. We can even do another time if you are prepared to meet the babies without feeding them. Want to come with a group larger than 6? Drop me a message, and we'll see what we can do.) Other things to note: You will get dirty and covered in animal hair! Babies can get a bit crazy so be prepared for some adorable chaos.

The Experience After being greeted on the farm, guests will be introduced to the goats while they are still in a fenced pasture. Once the goats are released, we will follow them in their meanderings while gently leading them to where we want to go (open meadows, woodlands, pond) depending on weather conditions and the state of the terrain. As we shepherd the goats, we will observe what they are choosing to eat and how they are interacting with each other. Guests will learn to listen to their bells to locate them and to call them. Moments of blissful silence will alternate with passionate conversation about what it takes to grow healthy food. The walk can take up to 2 hours depending on the weather and everybody's disposition. You will be participating in the goats' meal plan, so we will set out on time, at 10am. The goats are hungry in the morning! Pets and Children Unfortunately, pets are not welcome due to the high level of interaction with the goats. This experience is best suited for children ages 10+. What to Bring Please cover your ankles, legs, and arms for protection against brambles, burrs, and bugs. Hiking shoes or boots are best, they are sturdy and will provide good support for the walk. I always encourage bringing a water bottle and a seasonal hat. Other things to note The goats travel across all sorts of terrain: up and downhill, through marshes and creeks, in open fields and shady woodlands. The walkabout is at a relaxed pace and will cover around a mile.

We will meet at Poets Walk - nearby trail that is inspired by artists and poets of the Hudson Valley and beyond. This trail is a scenic 2-mile loop with various lookouts and places to sit and meditate throughout the grounds. We will begin together at the head of the trail to review the guidance on breathing practices for your walk and a focus for your medicine. With social distance and mask requirements if this area you are expected to also practice compassion :) While together masks are requested and once we begin and we choose to separate at least 6 feet apart from each other - you may remove your mask to fully breathe in the mountain air and relax - please be mindful of others on the trail as well. Once we arrive to our designated meditation spot ( a gazebo overlooking the water and woods ). You will be guided through gentle physical movement to prepare for a guided meditation. Beginners are encouraged and seasoned meditators are encouraged to practice what you know and deepen your awareness. As part of your meditation practice, you will receive a healing gemstone picked just for you and your intentions. You will be given instructions on usage and care for you to take with you on your meditation journeys. Upon returning to the beginning of the trail space is given to talk about your meditation and receive a healing Reiki charge as our goodbye. Namaste! Other thin
