  • Why Goats in a Minivan

    Six Nigerian Dwarf goats in the back of a minivan.  The goats are looking around with interest.

    The highlight of our summer is the Barnstable County Fair. What started as a 4-H activity for two homeschooled kids (now in college or beyond) slowly turned into goats, commitments, friends, and a fair week in July that now anchors the year.

    Somewhere along the way I thought, You’ve never done this before. How hard can it be?

    Prepared for anything

    So every summer, the goats load themselves up in the van. We open the door and in they go, ready for a week of fun.
