A Goat Farmer - Job Opportunities in Agriculture

A Goat Farmer

Ever wonder what it’s really like to run a goat farm? In this episode, Victoria Balentine—owner of Shady Farms in upstate New York— shares her career insights in goat farming and tips for making money in agrotourism.' She gives us a behind-the-barn look at her job and her career switch, from city acupuncturist to hands-in-the-dirt farmer, and the sweet (and sometimes stinky) reality of small-scale farming.

She spills career insights on making money through agrotourism—think goat yoga and farm tours—and talks about what it really takes to keep a modern farm thriving.

If you're flirting with a career change, dreaming of a simpler life, or just curious about farming-life beyond Instagram, this episode is for you. Packed with practical tips, honest moments, and a lot of goat energy—this one's a treat.
