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!

Dasha with twins Dina and Dover

Maeve with twins Max and 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!
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!
Thank you again to our 2025 Sponsors!
