Highlights
Outing Highlights
Farm Hangout: Slow Arrival, Genuine Connection
Begin by settling in on the farm: meet the goats, pet them, take photos, or simply be present in a space intended for connection with animals and people.
Guided Goat Hike Through Scenic Trails
A peaceful, unhurried walk across the property alongside goats gives you space to breathe and experience the farm’s nature at a relaxed pace.
Gentle Goat Yoga and Meditation
Close the visit with a grounding, restorative practice: light movement and meditation while goats roam naturally—intentionally calm rather than chaotic.

What the 90 Minutes Feels Like
The flow is intentionally slow: arrive and connect during a farm hangout, move into a guided hike with goats across the property to breathe and ground yourself, then finish with a gentle goat-yoga and meditation session that emphasizes calm presence rather than spectacle.
