TWO FARMS. ONE BEAUTIFUL NEW CHAPTER. 🌿

Magnolias & Moss is entering a new season.

A quieter kind of luxury.
Rooted in the land.
Inspired by the Lowcountry.
And now, growing between two farms.

The Goatery will always be where so much of our story began — the goats, the milk, the animals, the people and the beautiful connection to farm life that taught us to look differently at what we make and why we make it.

And now, we are growing a second farm.

A place where Magnolias & Moss can put down its own roots.

Our new farm and production facility will become home to the botanicals we grow, the ingredients we harvest and the small-batch products we create. Gardens will be planted with purpose. Ingredients will travel feet instead of miles. And we will continue searching for more beautiful, thoughtful and sustainable ways to make and package everything that carries the Magnolias & Moss name.

Two farms, each with its own purpose, growing together.

One filled with the animals and experiences that made us fall in love with farm life.

The other becoming a place to grow, harvest, create and imagine what comes next.

Together, they are the heart of Magnolias & Moss.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll begin sharing our new look, new products, the transformation of our new farm, what we’re planting and growing, and some very exciting announcements about where you’ll soon be able to find Magnolias & Moss.

There is so much more to come.

Two farms. One Lowcountry story.
From our land to your home. 🌿

I have a feeling Heaven is shining a little brighter tonight — with bigger hair, longer nails, an even bigger heart, and one amazing soundtrack. šŸ¤

Dolly was an icon, but not simply because she was a star. She was an icon because, through all the fame, rhinestones and success, she remained completely and unapologetically herself.

She never seemed to take herself too seriously. She could laugh at herself, yet behind that larger-than-life personality was a woman who quietly did so much good. She put books into the hands of millions of children, gave generously to research and causes she believed in, and loved a husband who wanted nothing to do with the spotlight. She respected that, and together they created their own version of happily ever after.

As a little girl, I loved her movies. I loved her relationship with Burt Reynolds. I loved 9 to 5 — and as I got older, I realized just how progressive and gutsy that movie really was.

But most of all, I loved Dolly because she was authentic.

She showed us you could be feminine and strong. Funny and intelligent. Glamorous and grounded. Successful and generous. You could dream ridiculously big without ever believing you were more important than everyone else.

In a world where so many people spend their lives trying to become someone else, Dolly spent hers becoming more and more herself.

Tonight, I like to imagine Carl was waiting for her — and somewhere in Heaven there’s country music playing, a lot of laughter, plenty of rhinestones and one spectacular head of blonde hair. šŸ¤

Thank you, Dolly, for reminding us to be kind, dream big, laugh at ourselves and, above all, be exactly who God made us to be.

We will always love you. šŸ¤

To be a child again.

To see the world through those eyes—with a beautiful innocence that hasn’t yet been shaped by hurt, hard lessons, disappointments, or all the ā€œnever againsā€ we collect along the way.

I think farming begins a little like that.

When you first start, everything feels magical. Every birth is a miracle. Every new animal is exciting. Every season feels full of possibility. You dream big because you haven’t learned all the reasons you should be afraid to.

And then you grow.

You lose animals you fought desperately to save. You make expensive mistakes. Weather changes plans. Things break. People disappoint you. You learn that loving something deeply doesn’t guarantee you can protect it from everything.

And without realizing it, you can begin looking at your farm through the eyes of everything that has gone wrong instead of everything that is still beautiful.

Maybe growing as a farmer isn’t about becoming tougher.

Maybe it’s about becoming wiser without becoming hardened.

Learning the lesson without losing the wonder.

Knowing what can go wrong and still planting the seed. Still opening the gate. Still loving the animal. Still building the dream.

That may be one of the greatest gifts of having little friends visit our farm.

They don’t see the broken fence, the long days, the bills, the mistakes, or yesterday’s worries.

They see a goat and light up.

They hear a tiny bleat and laugh.

They touch a soft nose and think they’ve just experienced the greatest thing in the world.

And for a moment, we get to borrow their eyes.

May we grow wise without growing weary.
May the lessons make us stronger, but never harder.
May we remember the wonder that brought us here.
And when our own eyes become tired from everything they have seen,
may we look at this little farm through theirs—
and somehow, see it for the first time again. šŸ¤šŸ

No matter the season, you can always rely on the sunset.

Storms may gather. Winds may shift. Even with a hurricane on the horizon, the sun is still there—quietly waiting in the background for us to notice it.

For a farmer, there is a deep and natural comfort in knowing that some things remain constant. When so much of life is spent chasing sunlight and depending on things beyond our control, the sunset reminds us that beauty still shows up.

I hope, in this life, I can be someone’s sunset.

And for this farm, I hope I can be the same—steady, faithful and always present. You may not always see me, but I am here. Through every season, every storm and every change, I will continue showing up for this place.

Here’s to becoming better sunsets for the people and places we love.

An ode to the farm. šŸŒ…

I promise nobody is sleeping on the job!

Wow. Just wow. This heat has been something else.

In the nearly eight years we’ve been at the farm, this is the hottest we have ever experienced. Much of our day is spent checking on our two-legged and four-legged friends—and, of course, all those in between with feathers, talons, and even the little slippery ones tucked beneath the ground.

Over the next couple of weeks, we will be slowing down tours and other visitor activities, particularly during the afternoon. We want you to have the wonderful farm experience you came for, but when that experience begins with this kind of relentless heat, it simply isn’t what it should be.

More importantly, our animals become genuinely excited when they see you. They love the attention, but excitement requires energy, and in extreme heat, that extra exertion can affect them more than we realize. That is why we have implemented mandatory afternoon closures—to give every animal the quiet and rest they need.

They have plenty of hay, fresh cold water, special snacks, minerals, shade, and fans. Our job right now is to keep them comfortable, calm, and safe.

So, if you arrive at the farm and no one is there, please know it isn’t because we aren’t doing our jobs. It is because we are doing the most important part of our jobs: putting the animals first.

Sometimes, animals deserve a break from entertaining us.

Animals deserve quiet, too.

Our two farms are beautifully different, each with its own rhythm and purpose.

The Goatery at Kiawah River is full of life, laughter, and energy—the happy chaos of goats, chickens, visitors, and everyday farm moments.

Our newest farm is something quieter. It is a place of preservation and inspiration, where the wind moves through the sweetgrass and the magnolia trees gently sway. This is where Magnolias & Moss can take root—surrounded by the plants, textures, and natural beauty that inspire what we create.

The farms are separate, but they share the same values: caring responsibly for the land, honoring our animals, supporting local agriculture, and growing with intention.

We are growing in spirit, not becoming industrial. And whether we are caring for goats or creating beautiful products, we keep returning to one simple truth:

The answer to almost everything is nature-al. 🌿🐐
