Chrissy Tries Goat Yoga - Not Baaaaad

I am not a person who does yoga, but when cute animals are involved, I'm all in. I had a blast doing goat at Into The Woods Farm in Middle Grove. The staff was awesome and the goats made it the best exercise class I have ever taken. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves animals and a lot of laughter. I may go back because they offer hikes with the goats too.
