Hello Reader, The moment has arrived. The gates are officially open. As of right now, our Kickstarter campaign for The Antiquity Oaks Reset is officially LIVE. You can support us for as little as $5. PLUS, anyone who backs the project at any level in the first 24 hours will get a $20 coupon for any upcoming in-person workshop or retreat in 2026. This includes our monthly 1/2-day meditation retreats, which are normally $45, as well as private cheese or soapmaking classes, which are normally $97 for you and three friends. And we will be starting yoga classes soon! 👉 Click here to see what we're planning, check out the rewards, and back the project! If you are feeling the crushing weight of a never-ending to-do list, this is your invitation to step out of the noise. By backing our project today, you are helping us build our very first pond-side glamping sanctuary—and you are reserving your own private space to come pause, breathe, and unwind. Because our availability for this summer and autumn is limited, these rewards are available on a first-come, first-served basis:
Success on Kickstarter is all about Day 1 momentum. Pledging today doesn't just get you an exclusive summer escape—it gives our project the green light it needs to cross the finish line quickly so we can order our premium tent and begin staging the sanctuary. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to slow down, this is it. 👉 Choose your reward and claim your piece of the sanctuary here. Thank you for being the foundation of this dream. I can't wait to see you by the pond! With warm gratitude, Deborah Antiquity Oaks Farm P.S. Remember, our "Green Light" goal is $1,500 to get the basic structure on the platform. But if we can surge past that to our stretch goal of $2,500, we can upgrade to a premium tent model with extra windows for cross-breezes and a fully integrated floor. Help us unlock the premium experience by locking in your stay today! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/deborah-niemann/antiquity-oaks-retreat |

Hello Reader, In this issue, we’re covering some of the most serious and misunderstood health challenges goat owners face — from listeriosis and Johne’s disease to parasite resistance and natural worm control — along with an inspiring look at how one farm turned extra goat milk into a unique business opportunity.

Hello Reader, If you’ve been following our personal journey here at Antiquity Oaks for a while, you know that this farm has always been a place of production. For 24 years, we’ve worked the land, milked goats, made cheese and soap, and lived deliberately by the rhythms of the seasons. But lately, I’ve been reflecting on something important. The greatest thing this farm ever grew wasn’t our organic food or our handcrafted goat milk soap. It was the profound, restorative healing that happens to...
Hello Reader, Are your goats stomping their feet or chewing at their legs more than usual? Chorioptes mites are easy to overlook in the beginning, but untreated infestations can lead to worsening skin irritation and hair loss. Want to save money and eliminate toxins by making your own laundry detergent? You've probably seen lots of recipes and opinions online about homemade laundry detergent and maybe even horror stories such as homemade detergents ruining washing machines. After trying...
