A powerful life changing, beautiful word , we love to live our life by….  

Meraki Farm is our family-owned and operated goat farm in Southern New Jersey.  Our farm has been a labor of hard work, dedication and love to bring our families dreams to life.  We have built a homestead through our passion and love for our animals as well as to create a more pure and simplistic lifestyle for our family and anyone who visits. With every change of the season leads us into new adventures and many new products to share with everyone!  We live our life the “Meraki Way”…Everything we do is with soul, creativity and love; putting a piece of ourselves into everything we do.

We have a herd of Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats, who all have names that go back to their larger than life personalities and are just the most loving and amazing animals you will every come across. Once our babies are weaned,  each doe is milked daily and their fresh milk is used in our handmade soaps and lotions crafted right on the farm.  Our products are handcrafted in small batches from start to finish using our unique recipes.  With a blend of herbs to infuse oils, rich butters and fresh goat milk from our goats, we create a variety of products that are beneficial to the skin. What sets our soap apart is that we use no water in our recipe, just 100% goats milk combined with natural butters and oils to give maximum benefits to your skin.  Every batch is poured, cut and packaged by hand to ensure a quality product you will enjoy using!  We want to give you a piece of Meraki in everything we make.

    Born and raised in Northern New Jersey, I have decided to settle down in Southern New Jersey to build an amazing life for my family and I on this homestead. “Meraki” is the perfect word to describe how I live my life and my passion for animals and what I am creating for the world to enjoy.  This farm has been a dream and passion of mine for years and is the home to many animals that are born on the farm, raised and loved unconditionally.  I am living out my dream of running my own business and creating products for my family and the world to enjoy. There is so much passion, dedication and love in every product I make. I can’t wait to share my journeys on the farm and my wonderful creations with you!

    Living my entire life in Northern New Jersey, it was time to make a change when we found our dream farm in South Jersey. What I love about the farm is the amount of land that my dogs get to exercise on and just live their best life. My passion is dog training and I have been training dogs in competition dog agility for over 20 years. Meraki Farm is the new home to my dog training business “Lucky Paws Agility” which I am very excited to share with my customers of all stages in their agility training.

Goats Milk Soap

Using skin care products that are made with goats milk can truly benefit your skin's health. One of the best benefit of goats milk is that it is wonderful for people with dry or sensitive skin and/or have conditions like eczema or psoriasis. It is also beneficial for healthy skin and for help keeping skin that way!

  • Goats milk contains many vitamins including A, B,C, & D, but is particularly high in Vitamin A.  This is necessary to repair damaged skin tissue, and maintain healthy skin. 

  • Contains Alpha Hydroxy Acid which helps remove dead skin cells from your skins surface and helps promote new cell growth for healthier, smoother and glowing skin.

  • Fat molecules are an important part in making good soap.  The cream that is present in goat's milk gives extra moisturizing benefits to your skin.

  • Goats milk soap by nature is very creamy and gives a beautiful lather.  The combination of natural oils, butters and essential oils with the goats milk really gives your skin a smooth and nourished look and feel.

  • Helps with skin related problems including eczema and psoriasis and also naturally oily skin.  The soap is a gentle cleaner that can really help with these conditions.
