A small family homestead located in Surry Maine, raising ADGA registered Nigerian Dwarf goats for show and dairy. And striving for a 100% heirloom garden.

Pedigreed Hollands ready to go to their new homes! Transport available to the Bangor rabbit show on November 1st! Info under each picture.

The black otter is a hearty and really stout little buck from a different litter (RoyalXPistachio)! Unfortunately he’s not showable because he’s also harlequinized and has stray white hairs, but I’m loving his type! His littermate brother will be staying here.

The harlequin/tri litter is out of S’mores (chocolate harlequin VM) and Pistachio (broken blue torte).

Me and a couple of the does took a road trip today to meet some very handsome bucks! I must say, I am sooo thankful for our goat family/friends up here in Maine! 🥰 I can’t wait to confirm these pregnancies and add some super exciting genetics into our herd, and I’ll wait for proper introductions on those bucks until the girls are confirmed bred…

It was a beautiful day for a long and quiet road trip! And for as many times as we cross it, this was my first time stopping at the lookout to view the Penobscot Narrows Bridge. It’s such a pretty beacon of light on the way home!

Thanks again, Carianne, for letting our girls have a date at Granit Ledge Farm. ❤️

Sneak peak at one of our working compost piles… 👀 This is the all purpose pile: soiled goat bedding, son rabbit manure, grass clippings, offcasts from the garden, bones and other goods leftover from butchering. This healthy compost is now absolutely loaded with worms! I’ll have to take a thermometer with me next time I dig in it, but it’s HOT. Easily 110*, steamy hot.

Check out how handsome these two little Holland Lop bucks are! 😍 They are out of Royal and Pistachio. The tricolor is staying, but the harlequinized black otter is available. These guys are SOLID!

Baby Hollands! This Litter is out of Pistachio and S’mores. Ready to go October 22nd, taking reservations now. The first two are bucks and the last four are does. One doe is retained, one is pending reservation, and the other two I am waiting to hear from someone before they are available, so currently only waitlist for does. Babies from this litter are chocolate carriers as S’mores is a chocolate harli VM. Please refer to the album “breeders in our rabbitry” to see pictures of the parents.

Farm puppy Oona had her first ever grooming appointment today and they said she did fantastic! Orland Grooming did a great job with her!

Last goat show of the season, done ✅
First fair week with livestock, done ✅
First official blue ribbon (goats), done ✅

We had such a blast at the BLUE HILL FAIR as always, but this was our first fully emerged week there! To say we’re exhausted is an understatement… more info to come on our placings for goats, veggies, flowers and canned goods after a full night sleep. 😴

This morning was my last “peaceful” morning to enjoy before our first ever full fair week! It was slow and quiet, which I’m sure I will crave this week. But it also started with me finding my biggest dahlia bloom (that I planned to enter in the cut flowers at the fair) knocked over with a broken stem and a big mouthful of petals missing… the deer visited last night and found my new garden location, they absolutely demolished the pole bean teepee! Thankfully those seem to be the only two things they bothered… this afternoon has been frantic trying to clean and prep things for the fair. I have absolutely nothing pulled together for our “display” area where our goats will be set up, so if you have ideas please send them my way! Yesterday was the one year anniversary of my Mother’s death, so my nerves are shot and my brain is fried… If you see me this week, bare with me, I’m trying to keep it together.
