Meet the Goats at Hildene Farm in Vermont | Baby Goats, Milking Parlor & Lincoln Family Estate
Justin Vacula of the Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast visits Hildene Farm in Manchester, Vermont, near the IHG Kimpton Taconic Hotel, for a look inside the goat barn at Hildene, The Lincoln Family Home. In this quick farm walkthrough, Justin meets the goats inside the barn, including baby goats kept under a heat lamp and separated from the larger goats.
Farm staff explains that the goats are bottle-fed, friendly with humans, and that the middle section of the barn contains female goats. Justin shows the goats up close, describing their colors, tags, ears, goat sounds, hay-filled barn areas, and even horns on one of the goats.
The video also includes a goat anatomy diagram and a look at the milking parlor area. This video is useful for anyone planning a visit to Hildene Farm, exploring Manchester, Vermont, looking for family-friendly Vermont attractions, or interested in goats, farms, and historic estate tours.
