Nobody likes sad or grumpy faces, not even goats. A recent study has found that goats are much smarter than we take them to be and have the ability to understand human expressions. They can differentiate unhappy faces from smiling ones and are attracted to the latter.

Friends, we have received a request through Facebook to update our page here by removing the link to our web site. It is not clear if the request was to also remove the web site, too. However, the web site is still active (although it does need updating). We also still have many visitors in every season who are staying at the Airbnb apartment and cabin, so we will not be removing this page, nor the web site, nor the link to the web site - at least not yet. We will make updates as soon as possible to make it clear that we are no longer making and selling cheese. If you know of someone that may be interested in volunteering their time to help with this, please send us a private message. Thanks! www.sleepygoatfarm.com

This brings back memories of Della's cheese and the lunches and dinners we used to have. We miss her goat cheese!

Sunday Brunch calls for a healthy gluten-free quiche! 😍 🙌🏼 This is one instance that I actually prefer the gluten-free crust over traditional crust (I used almond flour). Farmer's Market veggies + goat cheese make it 👌🏼

Dear SleepyGoat Fans,
As you know, we are no longer making our award-winning cheeses (as of the end of last summer). We thought we would mention that still remaining on the farm is some of the equipment that we used for making that deliciousness you loved so much. We would like to sell this equipment so if you (or anyone you know) would be interested in purchasing this equipment, please send us a private message and we will forward pertinent details. We have the cheddar cheese press and the milk pasteurizer left to sell.

Thank goodness this never happened with us! Seven goats literally ran off and escaped during a “Running of the Goats” event in Kentucky.
