GOATherapy

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have one-on-one time with goats? See what it’s like to connect with them, by being among them and observing them up close, undisturbed? This is a small, intimate, therapeutic and relaxing experience, one that allows you to turn off and forget the outside world for a while. 

Research indicates that interaction with therapy animals can temporarily affect the release of various neurotransmitters in the brain. Oxytocin levels (linked with bonding) and dopamine levels (involved in the reward-motivation system) are increased, while cortisol levels (an immunosuppressant associated with stress) are decreased. https://goatyoga.net/goat-therapy-animal-assisted-therapy/

Our goats are calm and have a calming and soothing effect. They are very mild tempered and perfectly safe to be around, even for small children. You will be able to feed them treats, brush and groom them, we can also teach you how to milk them if interested (seasonally) and you will have the opportunity to try their milk.

We can stay with you to answer your questions and tell you about our animals, or we can leave you with them for a private and intimate experience. Depending on the time of the year, there may be baby goats to watch, hold and play with!
