Faces & Places Summer 2025

The Face of ENTERTAINMENT Firehouse Farms B ased in Shawnee, Colorado, this fami- ly-run business offers goat visits for all kinds of celebrations, from birthdays and weddings to baby showers and even work- place parties. The farm also hosts summer camps and homesteading classes, where participants can learn to make goat’s milk soap, goat cheese, and care for goats. They also offer “Goat-A-Grams,” quick 15–20 minute visits that brighten up schools, hospi- tal stays, or a tough day at the office. The goats arrive ready to party and are always a hit.

The farm was established four years ago by Cynthia Koogle, Chief Goat Wrangler and former paramedic. Since then, the farm has grown from a handful of parties to a full-service operation. As proud Colorado locals, the Koogle family loves the mountains, hikes with their goats, and never goes camping without them. They also give back to their community by offer- ing discounts to schools, military members, and first responders. Every visit with Firehouse Farms includes a hands-on, educational component—perfect for kids and adults alike. Guests learn how goats contribute to sustainable living and leave with a better understanding of these intelligent, social animals. Whether you’re looking for a unique party guest, a memorable gift, or a chance to learn something new, Firehouse Farms offers an unfor- gettable experience.
