About Us
Welcome to The Flying Goat Farm!
We began this journey about 7 years ago when we moved to Maryland from California via Oregon. We had a dream to buy some land and plant an orchard. A dream to have chickens and goats. A dream to spin our own fiber and to dye it the colors of earth, sky, forest and ocean. A dream to live more sustainably and to tend our piece of the earth as organically as we can. Today we have 25 acres, 100 fruit and nut trees, dozens of blueberry bushes and red and black rasberry canes. We have 70-something chickens, 1 roosters, 9 guinea fowl, 24 goats, 6 sheep, 5cats and 2 dogs. We also have off-farm jobs. People wonder how we do it all! Well, the farm is our 2nd or 3rd jobs. But it is such a joy to come home after a long day and feed some goats, collect some eggs, pull some weeds and breathe the fresh air all around us.
We sell our organic eggs to farm customers or at local farmers’ markets. We also sell mohair locks, fleeces, roving and yarn. We hand-dye commercial quilting fabric and yarns for ourselves and others. All but the eggs are available through our ETSY store and by visiting the farm.
We offer spinning, dyeing and weaving workshops, so check back frequently to see what events are coming up. You can also sign up for our e-newsletter by emailing us.
