If every day could start with baby goat yoga followed by piglet snuggles at the 24 karat ranch, this whole world would be a happy and peaceful place. The first thing you notice upon arriving at the ranch is the energy of the land and the people who live and work there. It just feels so grounded and welcoming. The owner creates magic with his smile and the stories he shares about the animals are inspiring. This is a wonderful place to spend time with your family away from technology and getting back to being human. Do yourself a favor and stay for the entire morning starting with yoga surrounded by gentle music and the instructor, Joy, guiding you into the stretches and poses that are so necessary for your health I could hear my cells saying "thank you". Add delightful little baby goats engaging in the process with you, and you are sure to remember what they meant when they used to tell you that laughter is good for the soul. After yoga, you get to wander over to the barn to meet the adult goats, pigs, donkeys, and a true through bred horse. We were then given the tiniest and cutest baby piglets and goats to bottle feed and take turns learning how to milk a goat yourself! This is all taught and supervised under the watchful, patient, and professional staff who are always watching to make sure everyone stays safe during the experience. I mean it when I say this is one of the best places I have ever been to and like I said, If every day could begin this way the world would be a better place!...

We spent the afternoon at 24K Ranch in Loxahatchee for their Baby Goat & Piglet Social, and it was hands-down one of the most unique and heartwarming experiences we’ve had in South Florida.
The event started with bottle-feeding baby goats while they snuggled in our laps to gentle lullabies (yes, it was as cute as it sounds). We got unhurried, quality time with them — no rushing, no lines, just pure farm joy. After that, we moved on to feeding the cows and then meeting the tiniest piglets you’ve ever seen. We gave them baths, toweled them off, fed them, and got some serious cuddle time. You could feel how well cared for the animals are — they’re clearly loved, and the space was clean, calm, and animal-friendly.
It’s run by a husband-and-wife team who are absolute sweethearts. The husband guided us through the experience and shared details about each animal with clear passion and care. At the end, we were offered homemade snacks made by his wife — thoughtful, simple touches that made the whole thing feel personal and genuine.
If you’re looking to do something totally different, something that pulls you out of the everyday and puts a baby goat in your lap — this is it. Highly recommend for couples, families, or even a solo serotonin boost. You leave smiling (and maybe smelling a little like baby goat, but...
Read moreThis ranch is absolutely beautiful and so serene. From the moment we drove onto the property, we felt at peace. I didn’t catch her name but the woman who greeted us first was so warm & welcoming. We went for their goat yoga class and we were pleasantly surprised by a tour of the farm & getting to meet & feed some of the other animals. Manish told us all about all the animals & the farm’s sustainable energy and made sure we were enjoying the pre-class tour with lots of jokes.
We got to carry the goats from their pen to the yoga area and it was such a cool experience. The class was great — a good workout with lots of entertainment from jumping baby goats. Our instructor told us about the symbolism of having a goat place all 4 hooves on your back being a gateway to releasing any tension or negativity. Even with a class of about 15 people, they made sure to give all of us plenty of opportunities for the goats to get onto our backs. Those of us who are usually a little nervous around excited animals even felt comfortable enough to play with the adorable baby goats and we were all sad to leave them.
If you’re looking for a calming, nature focused experience, I would definitely recommend visiting 24 Karat Ranch! It’s run by such sweet people and the baby goats are adorable. They offer a bunch of other activities as well so definitely...
