Agora Fields

Agora Fields, fainting (myotonic) goats, El Dorado, CA, is located in the Sierra Nevada foothills near Sacramento. Owner Sarah Lipman has more than ten years of experience caring for this specialized breed and keeps meticulous records of pedigree and health screenings.

The herd lives on rotational pasture in a mixed-forage setting with access to a well-ventilated barn during inclement weather, and kids are handled daily to foster gentle temperaments. Natural pest management and rotational grazing support herd health year-round.

Each goat receives regular veterinary care, routine hoof trimming, and targeted nutrition to support strong bones and muscle tone in this muscular breed. The farm began as a small homestead focused on sustainable practices, and soil health remains central to its approach. Clients often note the goats’ calm nature and adaptability to both homestead and small farm settings. Through careful selection and husbandry, Agora Fields aims to maintain the fainting trait without compromising overall vigor.
