A Different Kind of Farm

Meet the Goats: Brie 🐐 Brie came to City Goat Farm with her family after being rescued from neglect in Poughkeepsie, NY. Malnourished and in poor condition when discovered, the group has since recovered and settled into life at the sanctuary. Brie is Bianca’s daughter and Hildy’s mom, making her part of a multigenerational goat family, all living here together. 💕 Goats are intelligent, sensitive animals with strong family bonds. Brie is a cautious observer, preferring to assess a situation before diving in. Living alongside her daughter and the rest of their family, Brie demonstrates the importance of keeping families together when possible. For someone like Brie, she needs the security of those bonds to let her personality shine through. ☀️ Fav Snack: carrots Personality: cautious Special Trait: can do tricks #goatrescue #goatfamily #farmanimalsanctuary

We're all hard at work getting ready for our first kids programs on Friday! 🍎 There are still a few spots left in our Jr. Farmhands Program for 7-10 year olds, so reach out if you're interested!

What a busy summer it's been! Hope you enjoy some recent highlights. ☀️ We've been hard at work this month with improving barn infrastructure and planning our first educational programs. Stay tuned this week for info about two kids programs coming up soon! 📻

The rainstorms brought a special visitor today! This snapping turtle wandered up from the pond and got stuck on the wrong side of the pasture fence. The chickens were very interested, so for everyone's safety, we gave her a ride back home. 🐢 🪏

Spoiler alert: Separating calves from their mothers is deeply cruel. #saratogacountyfair #friendsnotfood
