The Goat Conspiracy

Tucked between Bloomington and Nashville, Indiana, The Goat Conspiracy operates as a non-profit farm sanctuary where goats, chickens, and visitors find common ground. This working farm welcomes guests for tours, goat yoga sessions, and overnight stays in a rustic on-site log cabin. The sanctuary's resident herd includes memorable characters like Rainbow, Peaches, and Marjorie—goats who, alongside their feathered companions, have found a permanent home under the care of founders Jac and Ben.

Goat yoga sessions welcome beginners with an easy, inclusive practice held rain or shine

Classes take place in the barn during wet weather, where the space stays surprisingly fresh. The yoga instructor creates a welcoming environment designed for all experience levels—no prior yoga knowledge is necessary. Baby goats roam freely among participants, and depending on the season, newborn kids make surprise appearances during sessions.

Private tours make memorable celebrations, from bachelorette parties to family outings

The hour-long guided tour covers the sanctuary's history and mission while introducing visitors to both the goat herd and the flock of chickens. Guests often leave with a favorite goat. The farm also sells goat milk soap and goat cheese, giving visitors a taste of what the herd produces. Wear boots—this is a working farm, and the ground gets messy.

Founders Jac and Ben extend their rescue work beyond the farm gates

The sanctuary's commitment to animal welfare goes beyond their own residents. Jac and Ben have been known to travel to people's homes to pick up rescued chickens in need of placement, offering peace of mind to those who find themselves caring for birds they're not equipped to keep. The farm serves as a genuine refuge for animals that might otherwise have nowhere to go.
