Dasha the Alpine Goat doe with twins in July 2025

Goodbye Spring…Hello Summer!

The meadows are in full bloom, the garden is bursting with lettuces and greens, and the sounds of summer are all around: baby goats and baby chicks, nature day campers exploring the forest, and wedding celebrations under the oaks. Our Farm Stays are filling fast, and there’s never been a better time to visit. Summer is officially here at Willow-Witt Ranch!

Welcome, Dinah, Dover, Max & Margot!

We’re thrilled to introduce our four newest farm residents — twin sets of baby goats born to Dasha and Maeve!

Dinah and Dover arrived on June 7 at 3:30 PM, and Max and Margot followed on June 9 at 3:30 AM. They’re thriving, full of personality, and already out frolicking with the rest of the dairy goat herd.

While they’re still nursing, we’ll begin gently milking Dasha and Maeve in just a few weeks — and that means fresh, creamy goat milk will soon be available in our Farm Store.

Come meet the babies during a Farm Stay or our new One-Hour Guided Farm Tour. There’s nothing quite like goat snuggles on a summer day.

Shell-ebrating Community & Nature

Turtle Trot Thanks You!

2025 Turtle Trot start and finish line tent with participants and volunteers

What a day! Huge thanks to everyone who ran, walked, volunteered, donated, or came out to cheer at our 6th Annual Turtle Trot. Because of your incredible support, we raised over $2,000 for The Crest’s programs connecting youth to the natural world.

We had a fantastic turnout, beautiful weather, and a special turtle presentation by Suzanne that captured hearts of all ages. Events like this remind us how powerful community can be when we come together for a good cause.

Let’s make next year even bigger—our goal is 50+ runners in 2026!
