The Goat Yoga you know and love with new safety protocols to #stopthespread
Enjoy Goat Yoga led by Ashley Flowers, at Smiling Hill Farm. Smiling Hill Farm has baby goats and mama goats that will romp around in the pen with us during our yoga class. Bring a mat/towel or practice on the grass. Picture taking, laughing, and goat petting are all encouraged!
Each session will start with 15 min of goat snuggles, followed by an hour of yoga, completed with another 15 minutes of goat holding and snuggling! Option to grab some tasty treats from the Ice Cream Barn while you’re at the farm.
All-levels, beginner friendly yoga class!

Smiling Hill Farm
Smiling Hill Farm is a 500-acre working Dairy farm and an agricultural oasis in Greater Portland. This year the farm is celebrating their 300th anniversary as a continually operating farm!
Work on the farm is done in a way that is sensitive to the environment. Milk is bottled in reusable glass bottles, whey is collected from cheese production to feed pigs, no chemical fertilizers are used in the fields, and the farm is actively exploring alternative forms of energy.
When visiting the farm you can enjoy some quality animal time in the barnyard and delicious ice cream and dairy products from our cows. Barnyard is open daily from 10a-5p (there is a fee to visit the animals). Ice cream barn is open 10-8 for curbside pick-up/inside purchases of Ice Cream Treats, Milk, Cheese, Butter, Eggs, Yogurt, Ice Cream Pints, Frozen Meats and more. Lunch Café open 11-3.
