Welcome to Guildbrook Farm

Guildbrook Farm is a modern homestead in the foothills of Appalachia. We take our audience along on a journey to become more self-reliant by growing our own organic produce, raising animals for dairy and eggs, preparing food for long-term storage, and building off the grid renewable energy systems. In 2017, we moved to raw land where we are building a debt-free energy efficient and disaster resistant ICF mountain home. Join us as we learn to live a simple, sustainable lifestyle.

Natural GOAT LICE Treatment

Natural GOAT LICE Treatment

Our baby goat has lice! On our homestead we use a natural treatment for lice in our goats, not commercial medication or lice shampoo. We follow Pat Coleby's methods of natural goat care by using sulfur powder as well as other natural goat treatments such as tea tree oil, peppermint oil, diatomaceous earth and shaving our goat.
