Sleepy Hollow Homestead
At Sleepy Hollow Homestead we are a family of 5, and we are always on the run, but we felt we needed to be busy in a meaningful way while being sustainable. We took our big adventure in spring of 2019 when we purchased a herd of 9 alpacas. One had just had a baby Cria the day prior to pick up and we had zero experience in alpacas. We drove 4 hours to pick them up and 4 hours back and we were so excited to play with our new herd. We have 4 females and 5 males, Roxy and daughter Marigold, with son Oakley, Dahlia, Mimzy and son Lima, Gander, King and Notallama. A couple weeks later we added our two registered Nigerian Dwarf Goats Buttercup and Summit, and the adventure began. We also have honey bees and chickens, and so we started crafting which was our purpose to start selling farm products. in 2020 we moved into a store that sells Vermont homemade products “Robins Rustics in lyndonville VT”, we offer felted soaps, Lemon honey foot scrub, dryer balls made from alpaca fiber, felted gnomes made from alpaca fiber, hand made wreaths with felted decorations, Nesting balls, and gift baskets and of course honey and eggs. Fall of 2020 we will be breeding our goats to sell goat kids and we will be making products out of our goats milk.
The farm always has something going on, for instance we just rescued a 15 year old neglected Goat, a VERY LARGE goat with horns We named him HANK. He is living with our intact male King and he appears happy to have friends. We also do a garden where often times you will find a Russian Tortoise Loitering throughout, you just never know what you will come across at the farm. We are available for visits on weekends by appointment only as we do have 3 children and are often on the go. If you are wanting to visit the farm or are interested in our homemade products please send us an email or message the farm page!! Thank you for the continued support as we grow our farm and we look forward to creating more products for everybody!
Small homestead learning as we go, enjoying quality time with each other. Opting outside!!! And just enjoying our animals, and making homemade goods.
