Exciting things are in the works for 2025!

We have successfully had this beautiful boy collected out in Ontario.

He won Best Canadian Bred Male in 2023 against 17 entries.

He has been cleared with good hips and comes from parents with health cleared hips/elbows as well as siblings.

We are very much looking forward to the offspring between Maggie and Possum

This is our last doe up for grabs this year if you are wanting a bred doe, she can be bred before she leaves.

Send us a message if you would like to know the strengths and areas of improvement on Hailey.

This is our Agape's Prize Cardinal Sin's litter mate sister! This buck is my favourite buck that we imported. Have to get some updated photos this summer.

Heeeeey long time no posts! We are still here doing the same thing as always. We just really felt a pull to taking a break from social media. I'm still working and adding to our website and I have sent out a couple newsletters doing some updates. If you want to be added to our newsletter drop us an e-mail. If you need to contact us, email is the fastest as we probably check socials once a month ish. Summer was full of goats and a great chance to travel around and meet many different herds. Did a bit of breeding for March & April kids so looking forward to redoing our milking setup so we can milk a bunch at once.

Not too much is ready in the garden right now. Is everyone else’s super behind?? Anyways, I have been foraging and doing herbs, plus the odd leftovers in the freeze dryer to make future concoctions ie, teas and herbal remedies. What are you foraging for right now? Sometimes I don’t know what I need until someone suggests it 😎

This famacha training is great for anyone with goats. Parasites are a huge issue with goats and dewormer resistance is a real thing. This course is via zoom and 1.5 hrs.

My phone went for a swim in a bucket of milk. It's in a container of rice. If you have not heard from me, that is why!

Our Homestead Journey: From City Life to Country Dreams
Hey y'all! Ever dream of ditching the city buzz for some peace and quiet? 'Cause that's exactly what we did! No more endless barking from the neighbor's dog—just wide-open spaces and the sweet sound of silence. 🌾

We scooped up baby Hayes, said goodbye to the city, and snagged ourselves a charming old farmhouse sitting on a cozy 4-acre plot. But life's full of surprises, right? A few years in, we faced a crumbling foundation and a nasty surprise—hello, asbestos! 😱

So, we rolled up our sleeves and made the bold move to tear it all down. We built a brand-spankin'-new house and even expanded our little slice of heaven by another 6 acres. Now, we've got more room to grow, for us and our farm dreams.

That's our homestead story, but what about yours? Spill the beans and tell us how you turned your homestead dreams into reality!

Just wanted to share some good news about our beloved Kuvasz, Maggie. She's aced her health tests – talk about a champ! This girl's got a heart of gold, especially when it comes to our little humans and her farm family. It's true love, I tell ya!

Separation anxiety? You betcha. Take her away from her goat, pig, or horse buddies, and she's one stressed pup. She's even been known to snuggle right up to the fence, just to stay close to her critters. That's dedication, folks!

Now, for the exciting part – we're on the hunt for the perfect match to sire her upcoming 2024 litter. Think royal lineage meets farmyard charm. If you're dreaming of a fluffy bundle of Kuvasz joy, why not join the waitlist? Shoot us an email at [email protected] and let's chat!

Just wrapped up a day full of simple pleasures that remind me how sweet life can be. From the laughter of my kids echoing across the yard to the satisfaction of a job well done, today was a reminder that joy often lies in the simplest of things. It's the small, everyday moments that weave the rich tapestry of a life well-lived. And let me tell you, the feeling of contentment is as warm as the setting sun on your face.

I’m so sorry! Now I’m on the hunt for our recordings and if I cant find them I will need to re-record them. Good thing we are heading into farrowing and kidding season. Sorry for the hassle. Reach out if you have questions and I can walk you through.
