by Jon Katz

Here’s a way to come and see as many goat births and babies as you would like to see. You Are Invited to the Goat Lady Kid Festival.

It’s free and fascinating, courtesy of modern technology. Cindy says she will be happy to answer any questions about her farm when she has time..

Cinday Casavant, a/k/a “The Goat Lady,” is just a few days away from having 100 kids (goat babies) born on her farm. She will be feeding them several times a day for a month. I’m excited to report that Cindy has invited us to come along and observe the birth of her life and the birth and the feeding. She has invited us to come along, and monitor the process with an Iphone.

This is a rare opportunity to see one of the miracles of nature and also to look 100 goat babies and see how Cindy and her husband dairy raises and cares for them. Cindy is planning on putting up new baby and mother  pictures from the first day on. This is a rare opportunity to see something so amazing and Cindi is well equipped to tell the story as it unfolds.

Her blog is easy to navigate, please feel free check into the farm’s website and see what happens when 100 babies are born on a goat farm and how Cindy and Larry handle it. Cindy’s soap factory is in the basement, she’ll be too busy in March taking care of babies to make much soap, I’d recommend grabbing any soap on hand, they will be harder and harder to get until Spring.  This is not about selling soap, but if you take a look at her soap and order a few bars, you will never regret it.

I’m a huge Cindy Casa Casavant   fan, watching her put her soap business together has been inspiration. I’m happy to share this story as it unfolds, and you can follow it as closely as you’d like.   I can’t wait to see the babies as they come pouring out. Cindy says she’ll be a zombie all through March.

Thanks to you, Cindy for letting us take a peek at your insanely busy life.      I’m already getting a nice response to this, and we haven’t even got started yet with any births.

The best is get to come.

 

(Come Meet Mom Machiato, one of last year’s babies)

 

To get started Cindy put up a whole bunch of mother and babies on her website this morning so people who want to come along and see what to expect. Cindy is planning on putting up photos of her birthing process (this is where the cheese and goat meal soap comes from). I’m fascinated by Cindy and the work she is doing, it takes a lot of courage, planning, hard work and great soap making skills.

It’s a real gift for Cindy to open up her farm for us at it’s busiest time of the year. I appreciate it, I suspect my blog readers will also. Check it out here.

Cindy is going somewhere, her soaps are being bought and distributed all over the place..

I’ll be putting up links to Cindy’s blog, but I’d advise you to do the same. This is a story of lives for hard working humans and bright and lovely goats, (I had three at the first farm, they were way too smart for me, I’d wake up every morning and they’d be standing on my car roof making a lot of noise. I found a good home for home. Farming is the hardest work I’ve ever seen people do.

 

Check it out, this is an unusual visit to a working farm in action, and to the hard-working people who run it all. You can see a lot of momies, and a lot if babies. It’s also a wonderful step ahead for the blog, I hope to do a lot more of these  kinds of blogpost and I’ll be following the. Goat Lady’s Birthing Spectacle on the blog here. Go and take a lot.

I think it’s valuable to see how their lives work and to spread the word about Cindy’s baby goat festival. Starting in a week or two.

This is a fun and positive way to use a blog, I’m excited to see all these babies, and I can’t wait to rush over there with my cameras. It’s also a chance to understad the hard and critical lives of farmers. They are, like teachers and nurses, way underapreciated.
