More Information: Get your baby goat fix and have a cuddle session at Cotton Bean Goat Farms in quite Mt. Pleasant, NC. We are excited to offer a variety of goat farm tours, classes and baby goat play dates throughout the year. I always say tell people think Baby Goat Yoga with ONLY the goats NO yoga! We are happy to customize a goat farm tour, class, birthday party or play date to fit your needs. We are not a petting zoo but we raise and breed some really cute Mini Nubian, Nigerian Dwarf and Boer goats. You can meet our working AKC Great Pyrenees and Anatolian Shepherd's. See our working dogs in action around the farm with the goats, chickens, peacocks and cats. You may also see them napping during the day. Our team of lgd’s are much more active during the night when local predators such as coyotes are on the prowl. There is always something to fun to see and do on our goat farm.

​

We are only open by appointment ONLY: We are NOT open to the general public and a prepaid goat class, tour or play date is required to visit Cotton Bean Goat Farms. We love to share our farm and goats in a small private setting. We do not have restrooms, snacks or drinks so please come prepared. Maximum time allowed for your goat class, tour or play date is 45 minutes unless other arrangements are made prior to booking.

​

We are conveniently located 30 to 45 minutes from Charlotte, Concord, Harrisburg and Monroe, NC. We are about an hour from Gastonia, Belmont, Statesville, Mooresville NC and Pageland SC. If you want to get away from the city with your family and pet some baby goats, schedule a time to come visit us.

​

Grandparents if you are looking for something to do outside with your grandchildren this would be the perfect outdoor activity. As I tell my son, we are building up James's immune system when he visits the farm! lol Our sweet grand boy gets to do so many things that he does not get to do in the Charlotte, NC area. We also enjoy opening the goat farm up to groups of school children who want some real life farm exposure and meet some goats. If you are homeschooling your children this is a great way to re-enforce what you are teaching them.

​

Highlights:

• Meet our Mini Nubian, Nigerian Dwarf and Boers goats.

• Play and cuddle with our cute baby goats - They are very curious and will approach you. Once they are comfortable they may climb in your lap for snuggles and jump our of your arms. The baby goats have even been know to run with or follow human kids to play.

• Depending on the time of year you may see a goat giving birth.

• Depending on the time of year you may get to bottle feed a baby goat.

• Do you want to milk a goat? We may be able to arrange this.

• Our adult goats are super friendly. They enjoy snuggles and neck scratches.

 

Why do goats EAT everything: Mini Nubian, Nigerian Dwarf and Boer Goats observe and learn about the world just like a toddler, they put everything in their mouth! This may include your clothes, hat, sunglasses, fingers or elbows if they can manage it. They have a bottom row of teeth that they use to chew on things. It is rumored that goats eat anything. This is NOT true! They are very picky eaters, just ask Farmer Jason about our monthly hay bill and how much they waste just because they don’t like it.

​

If you have questions just ask! We are still figuring all of this out. We are just trying to share our love of goats with other people!

​

**Our baby and adult goats have horns! Please be aware of this when interacting with them. 

​

We are working on getting our on-line booking setup.
