Hop & Hen Farm Offering vintage-inspired goods, goat milk soaps and lotions, and fresh baked items all lovingly handcrafted on our farm.

We started the idea of Hop & Hen Farm after we rescued a few goats and got our first chickens back in 2015. Today, we have a small farm with chickens who free-range and goats that browse and eat brush and provide milk. We use what we produce in our own home, so you can be sure its quality is up to snuff. A small-batch producer, we make goat milk soaps, lotions, and eco-minded dry goods for use in people's homes. We also provide raw goat milk for pet use, which you can order through our site, and pick up at our farm stand. On our website you'll find most of our products, and - with the exception of milk - we ship across the US, plus set a booth at festivals and markets during the year. Accepting wholesale, custom and retail orders, we can't wait to share Hop & Hen Farm with you.

Were you a band kid?🎺 I was, and in so many ways it saved my sanity, while also giving me a sense of belonging, and it built a necessary base for a lifelong appreciation for the Arts. 🪄🎶🪄

Happy to take part here and provide some goodies for the concert last night at Lakes Community High School Friends of the Arts 🎶♥️🎶🪄🎶🪄♥️

We’re so thankful that our community values the fine arts! Four local bakers donated their delicious treats to be sold at the Fall Choir Concert and we SOLD OUT!

They showed up for us so let’s show up for them. Whether you need sourdough for fall soups and chili, focaccia for your pasta party, cinnamon rolls for a cozy weekend breakfast or crispy, chewy cookies to enjoy with your afternoon coffee they’ve got you covered.

Thank you to Hop & Hen Farm ✨ Butter & Bloom Bakery ✨The Hungry Bear ✨ The Local Stand✨

Your treats made a delightful concert even sweeter! ❤️💙🦅

What a gorgeous day in Lake Villa! ☀️ The farm is buzzing as we bake, make, and restock for the weekend.

🛒 Fresh Bake Pre-orders close at 5 PM today!

New this Saturday: 🍫 Gluten-Free Fudge Brownies 🍫 Brownie Bites with Dipping Sauce.

After plenty of taste testing, I can officially report: these brownies are super fudgy, rich, decadent, and just as delicious as their gluten-filled counterparts.

Also, if you're wondering where our website link went (and why I'm not putting them in posts), Facebook has been limiting link usage for small businesses unless we pay for promotion. 🤡 You'll always find our website, hours, and other information in our About section.

See you soon! 🌻

This morning we received a call goat parent's dread:

"Your goats are out!" Grrrr!!

Off we go to the property they're working on, and it turns out just fine, and we got them back in without issue. And know what else? It was a beautiful misty morning, and I think they didn't want us to miss it! A walk in the forest in the early morning hours is probably just about the perfect way to start the day! They agree, and love to snack on all that buckthorn!
