A Network of Meat Goat Education, Consultation & Services.
WELCOME TO 2026
We have LOTS of changes coming in 2026 and all positive!
Mary will be making some changes into her goat rental operations and focusing on longer term jobs and working with landowners to participate more with the goats!
2026-2027 will see Lora Frick (our wonderful Senior, as in most experienced meat goat producer/consultant) and Mary join forces as they develop a meat goat producer’s notebook that will have information from the producer’s standpoint that is vital to raising meat goats. We have applied for a SARE grant through NRCS to help us in our development of THAT DARN GOAT: A MEAT GOAT PRODUCER’S NOTEBOOK. Hopefully with a grant we can get this notebook into production by the end of 2027.
After the Notebook is completed, we will be giving workshops with this notebook, in the meantime, we are still offering workshops on Land Management with goats and the Basics of Meat Goat Production. We have also teamed up with SAVE.org to do more workshops at their farm at Riley, Kansas. We are also booking workshops for county extension districts in Kansas and we are also open to workshops online and in other states.

Natural Alternative to Brush & Invasive Weed Control
We are a Regenerative Agriculture Operation that raises meat goats, provides all-natural weed, brush, invasive tree and wildfire control using the goats. Goats are the logical alternative when it comes to natural land management as they are Nature’s garbage disposals. The goats can work areas that are too steep or dangerous for mechanical controls and waterways that are sensitive to chemical runoff. Use with or without other land management tools, goats are an inexpensive way to bring your land back to a natural balance.
