My name is Paul, And I am the father of three adopted sons, and this is our story! ​I have spent my professional life as a minister, and a health care provider working in Psychiatric / Mental Health and Addictions. During my years, I have had the great opportunity to work with many young men and women who had either developmental disabilities / mental illness or substance abuse disease. ​I have had the privilege to adopt three of these individuals and become their dad. ​In early 2025, as the economy and politics of our country changed, I became very concerned about the future of my boys.  I realized that if something were to happen to me, I wanted my boys to not be depended on a society or a government to take care of them.  That is when we decided to sell the house - and move to a farm.​ Together, we would design a future in which my sons could sustain themselves.  We would not depend on technology, but on our own abilities, disabilities, and skills to accomplish all that we needed.​My sons were excited by all the possibilities that farm living would have to offer.  This would give them a chance to contribute to their own growth and development.​ While none of us had any real farm / animal husbandry / mechanical experience - we were determined to make it work.​ Together we have cleared out land, built or re-built barns, coops, and buildings, and plowed and planted fields. ​Our animal husbandry started with a gift of 6 - 1 week old Purple Orpington chicks (hens), A few weeks later we acquired 4 ducklings and 6 turkey poults.​ Shortly after that, we would rescue two Nigerian Dwarf Goats from our local Humane Society (one of which was expecting).  The opportunity would then present itself for us to purchase a small existing herd of 4 yearling does,​ Then, our big girl would give birth to twins. This would currently give us a herd of 8 goats.​ The birth of the kids gave us the present of fresh goat milk. From that, I and the boys have learned to make cheese, butter, whey, and butter milk.  We also realized this creamy liquid was a gift, that could give us the opportunity to develop a product that could help a lot of people and also be a source of income for the boys' future. As a licensed Psychiatric / Mental Health provider, and also certified in Functional Medicine, I knew the importance of Aromatic essential oils in the management of mental health. I also knew the benefit of goat milk lotion to great skin health.​ So, I got the idea to combine the two. Utilizing my love of chemistry, I set about developing a product that would enhance the skin health - while at the same time boosting mental health with the addition of Aromatic essential Oils. ​In our store you will find the products we have created. ​Each product is named after the goats on our farm. We encourage you to follow our blog - and see our progress.  Also keep checking out the store of new items we would be adding as we grow together. ​​​​​
