About

Come and see where our story began when we became "farmers" just 14 years ago! Discover the addictive affection of these quirky and curious critters, and find out why we have so many of them!

(February - May) Come inside the goat pens and meet our newest baby goats. Unzip your coat, sit down and tuck a wee little baby goat inside your coat. Experience the sweetness of a tiny heartbeat, a little goat hippity-hop and the innocence of a precious mama-baby bond.

(June - fall) Enjoy a playful recess with the young goats and their sweet mamas out in the green pasture. Learn the names and unique personalities of each loving goat friend on the farm. Help fill the water trough and learn a bit about the chores that take place on the farm each day.

This experience is a fun and educational hands-on look at the important role our dairy goats play in maintaining a sustainable homestead. We emphasize how and why we milk them, the amazing products made with their milk, and you can discover why we love them so much!!!

We can also CUSTOMIZE this experience for special needs, families with small children, guests with disabilities, and the elderly. Please ask!

We'll also take a stroll to the boy's pen and see what makes the bucks so special too. They love treats and never pass up the opportunity to show off for our guests.

Purchase our handcrafted goat’s milk soap made with milk right from our own herd. Made with all-natural ingredients including essential oils and herbs grown here at Jireh Hills.
