About

Background

Originally known as Caprine Corner, the farm has transitioned into Leap of Faith Soap Shoppe and Fiber Farm. It is home to Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats, Oberhasli dairy goats, free-range chickens, and horses. The farm has expanded its offerings to include artisanal goat milk soaps and lotions, and it plans to introduce sheep and angora goats for fiber production.

Practices

The farm employs free-range practices for its chickens, allowing them to roam and forage naturally, resulting in large brown eggs. Herbs are cultivated in a greenhouse, providing fresh ingredients for the artisanal soaps. The integration of various animals and plants reflects a holistic approach to farming, emphasizing the interconnectedness of livestock and plant cultivation.

Of note

Visitors can explore the soap shoppe, interact with the goats, and enjoy the herb garden. The shop also offers hand-painted fiber and handspun yarns, with facilities like a tri-loom, drum carder, and spinning wheels available for use. The farm owner occasionally provides soap making lessons and spinning instructions. It is recommended to call ahead before visiting, as the owner may be attending craft shows or teaching.
