A Network of Meat Goat Education, Consultation & Services.
WELCOME TO 2026
We have LOTS of changes coming in 2026!
Mary will retire from the goat rental business at the end of the 2026 season which is completely BOOKED! She will focus more on educational aspect of meat goat production, land management and her breeding project will begin soon.
2026-2027 will see Lora Frick 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. When completed, this notebook will be available for purchase at our workshops and online.
Oklahoma Workshops Mary will once again be giving workshops on land management with meat goats for Langston University for the summer of 2026. 3-4 workshops have been scheduled to take place and dates will be available once the grazing season commences on June 1. These workshops will be in Oklahoma and sponsored by Langston Extension.
Workshops in Kansas are scheduled!

Land Management Education for Sustainable Agriculture
We are a Regenerative Agriculture Operation that raises meat goats, and provide education in land management as well as basic animal husbandry that will allow a new meat goat farmer to succeed on their farm with pro while using land management skills to improve the land. 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.
