    Big yawn

    Highly recommend visiting this farm for goat yoga! The yoga portion is very brief to provide ample time for goat cuddles. I was surprised at how much the goats loved to receive hugs and pets. Only one goat (Basil) walked around to provide kisses and nibbles to willing participants. The rest quickly chose a person and stayed with them for the class. Rosemary and Hope chose to stay with me. They found a comfortable spot on my mat and took a nap. They had no problem with me doing yoga stretches beside and over them. The class was outside under a tent. Even in December, the weather was beautiful. Avery Family Farm communicated important details via email before the event. We knew to bring a mat, towels, and any leftover food we did not want. We could not feed the animals directly, but gave it to the owner to provide at a later time. The towels are to cover your mat. In part to provide another layer of comfort. Mainly in case of messes. The goats cannot control their bowel movements. Thankfully, none of them made a mess in my area. The size of the class was appropriate. I believe there were about 12 participants in the class and 23 goats, 2 dogs, and 2 sheep. I loved how the owner shared the names for all the animals. She did so in the middle of the class once many of the animals had settled down with their chosen participant. The animals listened very well. They got up when she called to come into the tent once we were ready. Then at the end of the class all she had to do was call them and they got up and left the tent. Overall, lovely, unique, and relaxing experience. I certainly recommend this farm to others!

    I've been going here for several years. The goats are amazing cuddlers. Class is usually more goat than yoga, but the instructors are okay with that. I always leave with a big smile on my face. Classes are under a large tent so you have plenty of shade from the sun or cover if it is raining. Along with classes & retreats they offer a small selection of soaps (made from their goats' milk) and duck eggs. Parking can be tight, so be sure to arrive early to get a good spot. Be prepared, the farm is very natural and animal focused so not a lot of paved areas, there are bugs and they have port-o-johns. Everything is well cared for and the farm is lovely, but probably a bit more rustic than some folks are used to.

    Beautiful relaxing afternoon with goats! Nice to just snuggle and not feel like a vessel for food.

    Hux Family Farm in Durham is a small family owned farm that offers tours of the farm and goat yoga…read more I signed up for the goat yoga but ended up just snuggling with the goats and sheep. I was told that was ok too! Reservations must be secured ahead of time as space is limited due to COVID guidelines. After you park, you need to wash your hands and the sanitizing station. Someone will turn on the water for you and give you a squirt of soap. You cannot take anything in the yoga tent area besides your yoga mat and towels. Purses, bags, jewelry, etc need to stay in your car or put on the picnic tables as the animals could get tangled in the handles/straps. We were also advised to put our hair in buns as the goats like to nibble. This was a very good tip! My session had twelve participants and we made a circle around the edge of the tent. Since we couldn't be six feet apart masks must be worn the entire time. I'm glad that was enforced. I had no idea there would be so many goats. I think there were at least 36 goats and two sheep and two dogs. I enjoyed watching them file into the gated area in a parade. They were all lined up one behind the other and just kept coming and coming! Some of the goats had a lot of energy and wanted to climb and nibble and others just came and laid down. There were a lot of the cute baby goats too. The time went by very fast as it was such an enjoyable experience. Washing hands must be done again at the end of class and if you want to support the farm you can buy duck eggs, goat milk soaps, and t-shirts.

    Goat yoga! Not much yoga, TBH, but lots of goats! They had two baby goats, and all the adult goats…read morewere very friendly. You have the option of buying inexpensive buckets of food for them, but you get plenty of attention no matter what. The staff are great about making sure all people get a adequate attention from the goats, and everything is well-run and well-organized. They also have a huge dog who may be cuter than all the goats combined. Tickets are affordable and very convenient to purchase online. They also have some very nice goat milk soap for purchase - I kind of regret not buying some. Definitely make a trip out here. It's worth the drive!
