A Very Goat Time at Black Star Farms

Aug. 1, 2026

If you need more goats in your life (who doesn’t?), then head to Black Star Farms in Suttons Bay this week for two livestock adventures. On Aug. 4 and 5 from 3-6pm, the winery offers Happy Hour with the Goats, which includes time with the farm’s friendliest residents, half off select wines by the glass, and 10 percent off bottles to go. See more details at blackstarfarms.com/experience. Then, Aug. 6-9, find your zen with goat yoga at 10am. The class—which is about 45 minutes long, plus 15 minutes reserved for cuddling the goats!—is appropriate for all yoga experience levels. Plus, your ticket ($45) includes a glass of wine, a cocktail/mocktail, or another NA beverage. BYO mat, though they’ll have a few extras if you forget. Purchase tickets at blackstarfarms.com/series/goat-yoga.
